Friday Club Night
– We will now be going forward with a restructure to the Friday club night.
– There are three groups as I see it:
1) Adults who are not looking for support/coaching – this group will be supported John W and others.
2) Adults to who are looking for support/coaching – supported by club coaches
3) Juniors who require coaching – supported by club coaches.
– Happy to discuss and if you think you can help in any way, let us know.
– We also plan to add to existing tables.
– We are trying our best to support everyone at the club but we need support at times and we’ll never always get it right.
– Thanks to Brendan, Lynn, Tommy N, David and Euan for their support.
– Welcome to Louise, Allan and Lucas.
