Everyone planning on training this summer with Chelsea Nordic is required to attend with one parent. The purpose of this meeting will be to discuss: 1. The spring/summer season training and training camps. 2. Expectations: What do I as a coach expect from athletes and parents and what do you expect from the program 3. Goals: We will share a document with you looking at goal setting, you will have some time to discuss this with in your family and we will be doing a goals session in the coming weeks. 4. Nationals 2014: Planning needs to start happening soon for 2015 nationals in Thunder Bay, flights need to be booked, accommodation, book and support teams created. Can you please have a conversation with parents and athletes before this meeting to know if you are planning on attending nationals 2015. As usual my recommendation is that first year juveniles should focus on the Quebec Cup and look to go to Nationals in 2016. May 24th Is my birthday and I am welcoming everyone up to the farm for a training and potluck lunch. This will be the week end training there will no training on sunday May 25th. Remember that we train rain or shine, bugs heat and the cold. I will almost never cancel practice because of bad weather. You need to come prepare for practice, which means dressing properly, having a full water bottle and water bottle holder, some thing to eat (i.e., nuts, dried fruit, portion bar, granola bar) We will discuss this in more detail at the meeting on May 13th.
