Help needed for the YDL Upper Age Group meeting (Under 17 and Under 20) at Wyndley on Sunday

Calling all members…

If you can help at Wyndley on Sunday it would be very much appreciated.  

The event starts at 11.15 am, so we are setting up at 9.00 am.  We need to get hurdles out, set up long jump/triple jump boards, get the pole vault and high jump out, check the bar height of these, find all the relay change over flags and batons, find the scales to weigh throwers’ implements, put up the club tent, set up the sound system….Clearly there is a lot to do, so the more help, the better.

At 5.00pm we’ll need to put everything away, so any help at 5.00pm would also be greatly appreciated.

And if you can stay to help in between we’ll be able to use you: in the coffee bar, raking pits/collecting shot putts, putting out hurdles, taking refreshments to officials, running results from timekeepers to the announcer, pinning results up.  If you can stay, we’ll happily find you a job.

Hopefully see lots of you on Sunday. GO TEAM RSC!

No sprints group or throws with Graham tonight (Thurs).

Due to the snow, there will be no sprint or throws session with Graham tonight (Thurs). Please spread the word! Other groups may still be training. You’ll need to contact your coach.

The sprint/long jump/hurdles group will be indoors at the high performance centre at the Alexander Staium Perry Barr tomorrow (Friday) from 5.30 – 7pm. It costs £2.10 for under 16 and £4.20 for over 16. If you fancy it, come along. You pay at the main Alenxander Stadium reception, they’ll give you a wrist band and then you walk across to the indoor centre.

Over and Out.

Training in the Christmas Holidays

Merry Christmas!

 Just to say that during the school holidays, the junior groups are training 10 till midday on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays (with no session on Christmas Day and New Years Day).  If you have been told something different by your coach then obviously turn up at the times they’ve told you! But for any parents who aren’t sure, if you bring your child to train at 10am on Tue, Thurs or Sunday, there will be someone to coach them.

Have a relaxing Christmas break! 

No Sprints Squad training tomorrow (Thurs 13th Dec) and no long jump/hurdles training on Fri 14th Dec

The track is being cleaned today, tomorrow and Friday, so we are unable to use it. The distance groups will go running on the roads, but us sprinters, long jumpers and hurdlers really need a track. So there is no sprint training tomorrow.

Also, it is the monthly Sportshall competition on Friday at Stockland Green Leisure Centre, 7.15pm till 9.45pm, for athletes in school year 6 to school year 10.
