Hi all As promised previously, here are the dates for some upcoming skills workshops:
----------------------- Skills Day - 4th Feb A repeat of the successful Skills Day we ran back in October, the aim of the day is to teach some basic principles to beginners and intermediate players. It is especially aimed at those who started playing ultimate around Sept-Oct time (i.e. university beginners), but everyone is welcome and even players with a few years experience found the last session useful. There are some drills and tips that will help you to improve. - Basic throwing & catching technique - Cutting & effective man-to-man defence - Forcing and breaking the mark - Bidding & Reading the disc We'll finish with some games where you can put your new found knowledge into practice. ------------------------------- Zone - 18th Feb Aimed at all players and clubs who feel they could learn from a top 6 team, we will be talking about zone. - basic principles of playing against any zone - how to throw an effective junk defence - how to play against it We'll finish with some games where you can put your new found knowledge into practice. ------------ For both sessions: Meet: War Memorial, Victoria Park, Leicester, 10am on the day in question Map: http://multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&X=460000&Y=303000&width=500&height=300&gride=&gridn=&srec=0&coordsys=gb&db=freegaz&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=&advanced=&local=&localinfosel=&kw=&inmap=&table=&ovtype=&zm=0&scale=10000&up.x=60&up.y=5 Parking is available off Granville Road.
