A reminder that we have a coaching course scheduled at Knox Park next Sunday 14 September, from 10am to 12.
All relay coaches are encouraged to attend, particularly new and unqualified coaches.
The course is specifically for relay coaches and other coaches wanting to learn more about running and training techniques, and will be run by Stephen Cowburn.
