We are currently unable to take any more new 11 to 18 year old members. If you would like to be added to the waiting list, please contact Victoria by email at tor10@hotmail.co.uk. Waiting list numbers will be assessed and potential new members will be invited to a trial session on the first Thursday of each month, this is regardless of a discipline. During the first session the athletes will be assessed by Head Coach, Steve Mann. As places in the group are limited we are looking for new members with a willingness to compete and that have the correct attitude towards training.

At the end of the session Steve will advise if we as a club are the correct fit for the individual.
