It is always recommended for our athletes to further their knowledge and performance to seek out some assistance with coaching in their specific events. WCLAC offers free skills sessions prior to our regular Friday competition nights by our club coaches or senior athletes that have the knowledge to show our younger athletes some helpful tips and skills. It is usually a session that is held for approximately 45 minutes and although doesn’t go into too much detail, the athletes will be able to run through the specific skills offered and take away some tips to work on for their event at a club night.
For those who would like to further improve their performance and work on their specific event, there are multiple accredited independent coaches available that coach at specific times on certain days. These coaches work in the local area and are not affiliated with the club. Coaching fees will apply and set by the coaches themselves.
