PRE-SEASON TRAINING DATES
AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER 2023
Please encourage your child to attend the pre-season sports training and festivals (if selected) where possible. It does make a big difference to their personal readiness and the team’s preparation for the upcoming term All age group training is open to all pupils regardless of what team your child may have played in last year. All pupils develop at different rates and as such there is always plenty of movement between teams as they move through the school. Equally, even if your child didn’t play the sport last year, we would very much encourage them to come along and give it a go this year.
Either the respective coaches for each sport or age group, or I will make contact again closer to the dates listed below, as a gentle reminder.
In the meantime, let me say a huge thank you for your support of and commitment to PGS Sport this year, and I do hope that you and families enjoy a great summer holiday.
