Please take precautions such as having a full water bottle and hand sanitiser (if you have it or can get it)... Athletes will need to warm up and train with a bit more space between them and minimise contact ( no high 5s, hand shaking etc) Given that States and Nationals (Juniors) have been cancelled athletes may want to take a couple of weeks off. The postponement of Nationals for Seniors and cancellation of Nationals for Masters may also impact those athletes and their training schedules. Any athletes and or their parents who are not on this Facebook page can people please ask if they would like to join as over the coming weeks as things change I will post details and updates, especially in relation to our Winter Season. Any problems or questions let me know.
