Coaching weekend update


What a brill weekend! Great weather, great craic and great fun. Over 60 kids showed up for our joint promotion, but unfortunately only 4, and a few apoligies, from our own club! Athletes from as far away as Boyne A.C. in one direction and from Lagan Valley in the other got the benefit of some expert coaching in a range of disciplines. We had some shot putt, javelin with both foam and competition equipment, two sessions of long jump, starting block,hurdle and sprint technique. Some of the older athletes also had a track interval session. There was a comprehensive warm up program on both days and the whole thing was topped of by some beautiful spring sunshine. Top class event! In the pic are Kim Murphy from Glenmore A.C. and our own Charlotte Rea both throwing the javelin.....photographer is in a bad place!
