At a recent meeting of coaches it was decided that due to the large number of events in September there will only be 2 more 365 session and 2 more Waiting room sessions both early in the month. We then have many events taking place and the Autumn/Winter training sessions will start in the week beginning 28th September 2020.
Reasons – many coaches are also officials and we have worked them hard since lockdown ended and athletics started up again. A break is needed for all. In addition it is good for athletes to have a mini break before starting the next series of training sessions i.e. the Autumn/Winter schedules. We hope parents and athletes understand the reasoning here.
Please note –
- 365 training will alter in the way it is set up. This will be explained in a separate document in mid-September so all are aware of what is happening. If possible we hope to have a meeting parents and athletes can attend to find out more.
- This does not affect individual training groups run by coaches for seniors and older athletes e.g. the middle distance groups or the High Jump training etc. Please see the relevant coach for information as to whether training will continue in mid to late Sept. in these sessions.
Coach contact details can be seen below as well as a full list of 365 and waiting room training sessions taking place as well as the competitions to come in the next month!
