Booking Junior Training Sessions

booking-snapshot
By Bob Jackson Juniors Training 19 June 2025

Booking for 1/8/15/22/29 July is now open including 8th and 22nd at GSAL

Please book by Thursday 26 June 10pm (especially if you want to come on 1 July)

We were intending to have some sessions at GSAL during April May and June but we encountered some problems with making the bookings. We now intend to start on 8 July – see details below.

Popular times

We are normally able to have 6 groups at each of the 3 timeslots at Leos and 4 groups at each of the 2 timeslots at GSAL plus an extra group at the earlier timeslot at GSAL. The most popular times are expected to be Leos at 5:30pm, Leos at 6:15pm if the “C” group are also training there, and the earlier group at GSAL.

We will have an absolute maximum of 12 children in each group but would prefer to have no more than 10 because 10 is significantly less stressful than 12 for the parents leading the groups. If we get more demand than the maximum for any particular timeslot we will offer an alternative to those not “selected”. If you are able to be flexible regarding the timeslots you can come to, please indicate in the survey (you are likely to be in a smaller group if you don’t choose the popular times).

To Book for July

If you haven’t yet filled in this survey and you want to attend on a particular Tuesday, you must have filled in the survey by 10pm the previous Thursday.

Please note the rules regarding booking and cancellation

  • confirm your week’s booking by Tuesday 2pm otherwise you are at risk of losing your place
  • if you wish to cancel, do so by Tuesday 2pm otherwise you are at risk of losing your place next week.

Locations

  • 1 July at Leos 4:40-5:25, 5:25-6:10 and 6:10-6:55 but Richard & Alex’s “C” group will be at GSAL To Be Confirmed (see Whatsapp) at 6pm
  • 8 July at GSAL 6:00-7:30 but Richard & Alex’s “C” group will be at Beckett Park at 7:15. There is a slight possibility that GSAL won’t go ahead so I’m also asking you also to nominate your preferred time at Leos
  • 15 July all sessions cancelled – at least 90 of us and maybe more will be at Golden Acre Park for the relays – see Facebook
  • 24 July at GSAL 5:30-7:00 but Richard & Alex’s “C” group will be at Location to be Advised at 6pm. There is a slight possibility that GSAL won’t go ahead so I’m also asking you also to nominate your preferred time at Leos
  • 31 July at Leos 4:40-5:25, 5:25-6:10 and 6:10-6:55 but Richard & Alex’s “C” group and Nicola Hartley’s group will both be at Bodington / Brownlee Centre at 6pm

REGARDING 8th and 24thJULY – we will be almost certainly be at GSAL on these dates. If so, then there won’t be any sessions at Leos that evening. Do click the checkbox for your normal time at Leos just in case there is a problem at GSAL, but also click the checkbox for GSAL unless the start time and finish time doesn’t suit you (it says 6:00 to 7:30 but I expect to finish about 7:15 and in future weeks about 7:05)

Please take care to choose the correct survey according to your child’s surname
