The squad has a number of aims:
1. to take juniors that feel they have mastered the skills of white and yellow and teach them the skills required to tackle orange (and beyond) courses
2. to provide a social activity for the juniors to create a sense of team spirit and togetherness
3. to enter teams in the national junior competitions, namely the Yvette Baker Trophy, Peter Palmer, JK and British relays
4. to introduce juniors to the ideas of training to prepare them for possible entry to the North West Junior Squad (please see entry requirements at http://www.nwoa.org.uk/nwjs/about.html)

South Ribble junior squad training sessions are open to all club members and cost £1 per session. Sessions normally take place once a month on Saturdays from ~ 10.30am for two hours. In order to help us plan our sessions more effectively we do need to know who is coming in advance so it isn’t possible to just turn up on the day.

Are you interested? Then contact srjs@sroc.org to book your place on the next squad training day!
