This is just a field so bring everything you need with you, including waterproofs if wet and please pick up your dog's poo and take it away with you.. 

 

FOOTWEAR

It could be slippery if damp or wet so normal trainers are not recommended and definitely no wellies.The best options are football or astroturf boots or hockey boots like Ditas. The hockey boots have studs on the side to help stability when turning.And you might want to invest in a pair of waterproof socks like Sealskinz. 

 

BEV DALE

Some of you will know Bev from the March training day.She has kindly agreed to come for 3 or 4 Tuesdays (starting on 20th May) to give some training ideas that we can all work on. She won't be taking the classes as such but will be there mainly to discuss training methods with the instructors from which we hope that everyone will benefit in the long run.
