No one is under any illusions as to the gulf in class but the kids will get better and by attending the coaching provided they will get better quickly.
Keep the negativity off the page please
I have to agree. I am helping one of the juniors involved with this and was contacted during the event to apologize for letting me down. I pointed out there was no need and to get back to the board and show me how they could play (which they then duely did!).
I was really pleased with all of the performances and you can bet with the coaching they have received down there we are going to see a boost with most of the players
