Coaching
Coaching is not specifically included in our regular weekly meets. We offer a range of coaching options to suit beginner, intermediate and more advanced athletes. Athletes who attend coaching often see vast improvements as they work on their technique.
Our offerings include:
-
Tuesday coaching – athletics fundamentals – running/jumping/throwing
-
Thursday coaching – middle distance running
-
Sunday specialist coaching – various events as scheduled
-
Squad coaching – certain events only (subject to coach availability).
All coaching sessions will be advertised here and via Team App. Please ensure that you sign up for the sessions to ensure your place as many sessions will have limited places.
Monday Evenings
Squad Training.
These sessions are not for beginners and preferable athletes who have gone to regional level or above.
Session packs are $50 for 5 sessions. Payment in cash or by bank deposit at the first session.
Tuesday Evenings
General Training for U7+ athletes.
This session will include some general fitness, core-strength and flexibility activities as well as the fundamentals of core athletic events, run/jump/throw. Improvement in these general areas will benefit all athletic and other sports performance and should also protect athletes from injury.
