To the referee group from last year: we have not forgotten you.

More to come.

Training
We're back at training with a few changes this year:
In order to offer more to committed members as well as providing an environment for new players (regardless of touch skill level) we are splitting these two groups for the first 4 weeks for the new players.
They will have the chance to learn how XXX plays touch, with this strategy the committed group will be least affected.
After the 4 weeks, these new player will have the choice to join the primary group and further develop their skills.
We encourage you all to welcome these players and help pull them to the level you are at.
During the colder periods, we are focusing more on keeping warm with higher intensity drills (including the beloved 32-short). Once things get a bit warmer, the coaches plan to incorporate more of the finer details of touch into our sessions. More to come.

Nutrition Crash Course
Next Week, Thursday 17th March at 7pm, we will hold a nutrition session, covering the following topics:

- Nutrition for touch football
- Simple rules to understand what's actually true
- Q&A
Who's giving the session: Regan Kirk. Club's captain and most annoying voice.
Also : Certified Sport Nutritionist.
