Winter Training
July 21, 2012

Intermediate training for Under 11's to 13's on mini mals and Under 14's and up on big mals has commenced. Training days are Sunday mornings and Wednesday afternoon.

The club's Intermediate Squad coach Wal Walker was caught on camera by Christine Darragh while coaching his kids on a recent Sunday morning. With the photo screaming for a caption, here is what some of the kids and parents suggested!

  • "And I said I'd coach them for the next 20 years!"
  • "Why didn't I stick to running?"
  • "My God, I'm Coach of the Year!"
  • "How can you smash your board on the river?"
  • "Maybe when I open my eyes again they'll all be better paddlers!"
  • "It's so cold I've got BRAIN FREEZE!"
  • "What the eyes don't see, the mind can't believe"
  • "I can't look or I'm gonna cry!"
  • "You've got 10 seconds to hide!"
  • Who said Winter training wasn't fun.....
  • "OH NO I forgot to give LINDA breakfast in bed before I left this morning!!"
  • Don't cry, don't cry it's only salt water!
  • "Holy Crap, these kids are better than me!"

The squad trains along side our senior club competitiors and coach Rick Turner. Winter training is a great way to learn board skills before the season starts. Wal likes to keep training fun, interesting and social for the kids and parents. Contact Wal on 0418915881 or email to check exactly where and when this week's sessions are happening.
