2009-2010 Program Schedule
Hi Everyone,
In the coming days you will be getting invoiced by the club for the 2009-2010 competitive season. Their numbers are based on what I for see your children doing as of September. I will be setting up some parent meetings for the first week of summer training to go over the plan with each of you. The meetings will be group meetings with all the individuals in the training group as every group will have slightly different goals and processes in order to maximize the athletes potential.
Please be patient with me. Adjusting my planning to have everything ready for the end of June rather then early August has proven to be quite difficult especially with the timing of National Championships.
Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
