NEW TRAINING TIMES

 

From Tues 17th January 2012 training will be from 6.00 until 7.30 for all ages. This will continue up until the end of March after which we expect to revert to both Tuesday and Thursday night sessions as follows:

5.30 until 6.30 for Juniors - U15 and younger

6.30 until 8.00 for Seniors, U20, U17 and some U15 by invitation.

This decision has been taken to allow all athletes better access to our facilities. By elongating the overall session and separating the training times it is hoped that we will be able to better accommodate the growing numbers of athletes at our successful club and provide an improved training environment for all.
