This coming Thursday we are offering extra training for kids that are going to States. Events offered at training depend on coaches availability. Tomorrow so far we have middle distance with Coach Paul from 4.30 - 5.30pm. Coach Rachelle will be there from 5pm to coach Scissors. Coach Bonny can be there for Shot Put and Discus from 5pm - 5.45pm. I am still waiting to hear from other coaches but so far we only have two at this stage....so anyone wanting middle distance training or scissors training....come down to the track on Thursday afternoon!!
