We ask all juniors to support us in creating an inclusive and supportive environment where they can develop their athletic abilities without prejudice by..
Support
Supporting and encouraging each other in training sessions and at competitions. Nothing beats having your team mates cheering you on.
respect
Respecting each other and the Coaches & Leaders. We’re all learning and we need to give each other the time to do this.
LISTEN
Listening to the Coaches & Leaders. What they’re saying is for your safety and to help you become a better athlete.
EFFORT
Trying your very best. We don’t mind if you’re fast or slow we just want you to try your best and to improve your skills.
A few questions to ask before you train
Everyone is busy before a training session or competition so here are four questions every junior should ask themselves to make things easier for everyone.
How do i feel?
If you have been unwell or injured then don’t wait until you’ve started a training session to say something. Tell parents beforehand or your leader when you arrive.
what time do i need to be there?
Make sure you arrive in time and are ready to start immediately, that includes having the right kit and not needing the loo.
WHAT’s THE WEATHER LIKE?
If it’s going to be cold then a hat, gloves and a base layer may be needed. If it’s going to be hot then suncream, a hat and extra water will be required.
AM I HUNGRY?
Don’t eat a meal immediately before activity. If you’re feeling hungry then bring appropriate snacks such as a banana or a cereal bar.
