TRAINING FOR GUNLAC ATHLETES
​

Training is available for all GUNLAC athletes U7 and older, free of charge. Our Coaches Rodney and Simone are both qualified coaches and run sessions with the support of parent assistants. 

Sessions are held during the season EVERY THURSDAY 5.15PM - 6.30PM at AMAROO OVAL.

Parents must stay at training with their children, and we appreciate parent support to ensure that their children are well focused and behaved during training, and following safety advice with all equipment. 


TRAINING SCHEDULE
Training sessions are event focused with a rotating schedule. Age groups are generally divided into U11 and older, U9-U10 and U8 and U7. The schedule for training sessions for the first half of the season is set out in the table below.
