The dual development programme for athletes (14-17 years), and all licensed coaching assistants/coaches, kicks off on the 8^th/9^th Oct at various venues across Wales. The 2 hour development sessions (10am-12pm) are event group specific, comprised of technical and physical components.

Why not come along have some fun, socialise, while developing your skills and knowledge with the up-and-coming athletes and coaches in your region.
