Squad Throws – Peak Season

Training is always on regardless of the weather & conditions but of course modified as appropriate for optimal safety and health of everyone. Wet weather program is under the grandstand – med balls, etc

Focusing on those who qualified to Nationals / ALAC after State.

I try and observe and correct every athlete during the session.

I can cover, correct & improve a lot more in private sessions – contact me for details.

Senior athletes to run a group each – jav, shot & discus in the rotation :
Rotation 1 – shot intern with junior boys / discus intern with junior girls / seniors jav
Rotation 2 – discus 2 intern with junior boys / shot intern with junior girls / seniors discus 1
U10 & below juniors are finished
Rotation 3 – jav with U11+ juniors / seniors shot

Throws coaching covering all junior throws – javelin, discus, shot put
Hammer coaching available on request in private sessions

Throwers pls arrive at 5:15pm for a warmup, collect equipment with a 5:30pm start.
90 min sessions – we have to finish by 7pm as masters/vets have the track booked

Safety :
Make sure that no one is in range if you are throwing anything (use cones)

Sun session works on fundamental throws movements with less throwing
Both are important …
As the throws group is getting larger, I highly recommend private sessions for best technique improvement
