Starting Friday 26 June, we will start to run Covid-safe group training sessions for our juniors.

Smaller groups, limited spaces
Given the Government and ECB guidelines and requirements the coaching sessions will be different from our usual Friday evenings at Short Lane.

Coaching can only take part in groups of 6 people - 1 qualified coach and 5 children. Therefore opportunities and spaces for these sessions will be limited based on the weekly availability of volunteer qualified coaches. However, to provide more opportunities for all Friday evenings will be divided into two 45-minute sessions:

• Session 1: 6.15 - 7.00pm; and
• Session 2: 7.15-8.00pm.

Pre-booking now required
To ensure we collect information that can support an effective track & trace procedure, parents must register their children's interest in participating in a session by downloading and completing the application form below. This must be returned by e-mail 24 hrs before the Friday evening sessions. Bookings will then be confirmed by email/text message.

Please take a moment to review the application form, which also includes information on:

• what we will be doing to ensure these sessions are enjoyable, inclusive and Covid-safe; and
• what will be required of parents and their children to ensure the safety of everyone.

Note: The clubhouse and its facilities, including the toilets, remain closed at Short Lane.

Parents should also note that these sessions are open only to those who have paid the reduced rate membership (£30) for 2020.
