We’re here to help and support you through the impact of COVID-19. We encourage you to stay in touch with your club and coaches and with your friends and family, so together we can overcome the challenges that come our way.
The health and well-being of our members is our priority. We have created this page to provide updated information and resources to help connect members, clubs, coaches and volunteers in this unique time of change.

- Ensure you have water to keep hydrated
- Remember to seek medical advice before training if you have any existing injuries or other medical conditions
