Hi folks
Tonight's training is cancelled due to numbers.
Please all remember that these sessions are here for you, coaches and helms make their time available so that we can go out on the water as a team. Use it or loose it!

It's a hat trick this week and I'm cancelling Sundays session due to numbers and the weather.
Please find something fun to do in the meantime.

Hi All

PLEASE READ THE EMAIL AS IT CONTAINS INFORMATION ABOUT HENLEY AND TRAINING THROUGHOUT MARCH.

Firstly let's talk Henley, this is due to be the last race this winter at Henley, fingers crossed the weather is kind to us over the course of the next few days and the race goes ahead. We will once again be teaming up with Raging Dragons to form a composite crew. For those of you attending please make your travel arrangements known HERE<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VgsxZmArP6Zeo9YcvMtJJcFDCKmUsNXEZqQoWxMeax4/edit?gid=996703766#gid=996703766>. If you are looking for a lift, be proactive in asking people at training. Hayley is liaising with Raging Dragons who will be completing boat plans and organising, all we need to do is turn up. For those of you who this may be your first Henley racing the race hospitality of Henley is superb, with plentiful drinks, cakes and Bacon butties to purchase. Final details will be circulated later in the week as to what time to meet, but expect it to be 830ish.

Throughout March we are down to only 2 coaches who are able to run sessions. This means that some sessions may be cancelled due to availability. Bob will run Sunday sessions (apart from 9th March when he is running his half marathon) and I will run Tuesday and Thursday Sessions. Please sign up HERE<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SyWs_ql0ksTvj1Hpr9kyyDRRYM8OhvrVYTx2z2y4pOo/edit?gid=1263167237#gid=1263167237> to training sessions. We have had a few sessions lately where we have needed to cancel due to numbers being too low to go out in a Dragonboat. Now that the nights are starting to draw out and the weather is getting a little milder I would hope that cancelling sessions due to numbers becomes rare.

In the event of numbers not being at a minimum of 7 for Dragonboat sessions on a Tuesday and Thursday I am proposing to run 01 sessions. This is a perfect opportunity to either get back in an 01 if you haven't been in one for a while or come out for an induction on how to use and handle an 01. Sessions will be tailored to the group on the evening so those new to an 01 will have the time to build confidence, whilst those more experienced will probably have a slightly tougher session. 01 sessions are great for working on very specific areas of the stroke where you feel you need extra practice/coaching to hone your skills.

March training will see a slight change in focus whereby we switch from some longer aerobic pieces to shorter intensity pieces to allow us to start to focus on the upcoming summer racing season.

See you on the water

Pete
