Balcarras Astro continues to be out of action and so we have made the following arrangements for training.

Under 9 Training at Richard Pates Junior School 4:45pm - 5:55pm

Under 10 Training at Richard Pates Junior School 4:45pm - 5:55pm.

We would be grateful for a prompt pick up of the children as the lights on the astro have to go off at 6pm.

Under 11 Training at the Boys College Astro from 5:00pm - 6:00pm

Under 12 Training at the Boys College Astro from 5:30pm - 6:30pm

Under 13 Training at the Boys College Astro from 7:00pm - 8:00pm

We appreciate that the change of venue and the alterations of the timings will not be convenient for everyone, however we have tried to ensure that all the children get a chance to play in what is the last training session before Christmas. These changes have been forced on us and we thank you for your understanding.

We will be keeping with tradition and therefore this session will be around a Christmas theme with everyone encouraged to come in some sort of fancy dress, tinsel etc.  There will be prizes for the best ones in each age group. The majority of each session will be focused around competitions and games. Even if you are in full fancy dress, please remember gum shields and
shin pads.

The Academy training sessions for Under 14s and Under 15s remain unaltered - at the Boys College at usual times - with fancy dress!

Angie will contact the goalkeepers separately to advise them - however we expect them to follow the same format as last week.

We expect to be back to normal in the New Year with training re-starting 8th January 2010.

For those of you that are unable to make it this Friday - we hope that you have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
