Andrew Goodman  Assistant coach

We play/ train every Sunday, training sessions start at 10.00am and  we advise turning up about 9.45am ready for the warm up. Any child wishing to have a go is encouraged to come along and see if they like it, there is a £5 fee this covers 5 sessions giving children time to
 decide if they wish to continue so no pressure to join from the first session.
 
 Our normal training involves a warm up, various practice drills to improve key skills and of course some fun games as well as tag games.
 
 What to Wear-
 Being warm and comfortable is obviously most important; children need  to come dressed for all weather. As the weather gets colder we advise that children wear layers of T-shirts or skins under rugby top or  fleece, tracksuit bottoms, wooly hat and gloves, rugby/football boots or trainers. Please also bring a water bottle.
 
 Coaching will not be cancelled if it is cold, wet, too windy and so on, we just gauge how the children are enjoying the session (the wetter and muddier are generally more enjoyable!) and adjust the  length of session accordingly. It is only when the pitches are  frozen or absolutely waterlogged when coaching is cancelled – if you  think this may be the case, please watch the website in the early  morning for notices, we also try to communicate cancellations by email and by text so having contact details is an advantage.
 
 As well as having home training sessions, we have matches against other clubs and this can be Home or Away as well as Festival tournaments (where 4 or more teams play in a league and the go forward to knockout). There will be some traveling involved. When the children are playing away there is no training at home.
 
 Parents/guardians are always expected to stay pitch side unless they have agreed with someone else to take full responsibility for their child.
 
 Finally our age group had a great season last year, our coaches have worked so very hard to ensure that every child has enjoyed every session.Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions and please do come along and join in.
