Just some extra notes about Fridays session at Monash Uni (Frankston)which are good to know:
1. Runners: It is indoor (basketball surface) Shin pads. It is the players and parents responsibility to ensure these are worn.
2. Toilets: These are in the sports hall .
3.
Parking: Only park where it clearly indicates you are allowed. Inspectors patrol the car parks at all hours. (
Venue map)
4. Punctuality. Please always be a bit early.
5. Footwork Videos. I send out weekly footwork videos, but will only do so for players who have paid for the term.
6. Payment : So if you haven't paid yet please do. I do spend a huge amount time towards the end of term chasing for outstanding payments (even if it is just one player - it takes time) and i would really like to not have to. I would prefer spending time on improving the program. If you have over paid (due to last weeks cancelled session or you forgot to account for the new player deal (applies if new and never done a free TST session (inc hols)) then a credit will be given next term if the missed session isn't caught up before next term.
7. Catching up Missed sessions; Always an issue at the end of term for some.This is the most important bit about missed sessions. When players commit to TST, they are locking in a spot in a session. Whether they use this spot then becomes their choice. Please do not get offended if missed sessions which you have chosen to miss are not carried forward into future terms.[A huge portion of a players fees just covers the fixed costs of the program - which need to be paid whether a player turns up or not]. Opportunities to catch up missed session are offered, but if these methods do not suit you then unfortunately the missed sessions will not be credited to future terms. A few exceptions apply and a form (at the bottom of the T&Cs) has to be submitted to claim these (it is impossible to remember otherwise). The full T&Cs are attached (It is a very complicated explanation of the above (and necessary for the viability of the program) - so if you really want to understand the catch up policy in full you may have to sit down and work the brain - sorry).
8. Catch up methods for 'normal' missed sessions
- If we can get 2 sessions running on Fridays then doing a double will become an option.
- Get to Camberwell on Saturday afternoons
- Take part in the holiday sessions (2 catch ups per session - conditions apply)
9. Available Spots; There are still a few spots available so if you know of any player that would enjoy TST and wants to improve please get them to contact me.
10. Facebook : I am starting to post more and more 'educational info' on Facebook so please 'like' TST on Facebook so you don't miss out on this. Also share my facebook posts with your football friends. I want to see if i can get to 1000 likes this term. I am on about 300 i think.
Any other questions / queries........get back to me.
