Each training session will be led by a different coach.

Coaches will be responsible for selecting specific training for each session.

As far it is practical, week night sessions will be at the same location as the previous B-meet.

Left over maps from the B-meets are to be recycled for the training sessions.

Ribbons may be left in the woods on some courses after the B-meet, to be used for the training. All ribbons are to be removed after the training. Bring your own map cases.
