Club Juvenile Training


We have decided to add another weekly session to our current Juvenile Training calendar.

We will have a training session Tuesday Evening starting at 6pm and also continue with our Thursday Evening session starting at 6pm. Both sessions are open to all children from the of 8 years and upwards.




Tuesday Evening Session:
Our goal is to improve confidence, coordination, balance, strength, timing, skill proficiency and fitness of our athletes using PLAY. We will develop and improve on your child’s gross and fine movement skills. This is also suitable for children who do not compete in XC and are preparing for the Indoor season early in 2015.
When the evenings get dark we will go indoors and use the community hall. 

Thursday Evening Session:
The purpose is to improve aerobic fitness and endurance for the cross country season. In doing so our athletes will develop leg strength and speed, but also pace awareness.

Further training
There is some further cross country training for Juveniles over the next few weeks on Sunday @ 10am in Killarney. The training will be in the Demense field just beside the childrens playground. This is open to all county clubs.
