Young will play host to the Western Region Academy of Sport netball squad this Sunday for an intensive training day. Athletes from across the region will arrive at the Young PCYC at 10am for a full day of training. The 2008 squad consists of some talented young sporting stars of the future including Youngs Tori Pope and Lauren Sheridan. The day will focus on improving court performance and sessions involving fitness, skills and specialist techniques. The WRAS athletes will then further build on these skills the following weekend when they meet again at the Combined Academy Camp. Head Coach Cate Gardner highlighted the importance of having the squad train together as a group. With athletes in the squad coming from all over the region, training days such as this represent an important part of the development of both individual and team skills. Local netball players, coaches and spectators are welcome to attend the training session which will provide a great opportunity to witness the latest training techniques and drills.
