Coaches can attend any and all of these workshops if they wish to, even if they are not a member of the club hosting them.
All workshops will commence at different times. Please check this and ensure you arrive at least 10 minutes early to sign in so the workshops can start and finish on time.
It would be appreciate if all participants can bring football boots (ideally) or runners, and appropriate clothing to play football in, just in case they are needed as players on the night.
