TRAINING TIMES, SEASON 2024-25
SATURDAYS, Covenham Pitches
Players from U9 through to U15 train 2-315 pm
First Team train 315-415 pm
MINIS LACROSSE
Saturday 2:00 pm to 3:15 pm for U9, U10 and U11 players
These sessions are for primary school girls (Years 4 - 6) who want to learn lacrosse and have fun. Training is run in small groups and we offer a seamless transition from Mini-Field (non-contact, no checking, no goalies) to Field Lacrosse at the end of Year 6. Gum shields are required. Goggles are recommended, boots sensible in wet weather, and girls will need a stick. We have a small number of sticks available to borrow for newcomers.
JUNIOR FIELD LACROSSE
Saturday 2:00 pm to 3:15 pm for U12, U13, U14 and U15 players
These sessions are for senior school girls (Years 7 -10). Like most schools, beginners in Year 7 and above will start in Field Lacrosse. Gum shields are required, and studded boots are highly recommended in wet sessions.. Goggles are advised. You will need to buy your own stick, although we can provide these initially. Training will be a development across the season, with an eye on developing match play.
FIRST TEAM
Saturday 3:15 pm to 4:15 pm, Thursday 6:15-7:30 pm
Thursdays the Firsts are trained by the Firsts Coach, Saturday by the Club Head Coach ( or Deputy). These are not alternative training sessions - it's expected players attend both sessions to maximise develoment.
PARKING for training
Girls should be brought by parents and carers to the Covenham grounds for training. Please park in the Rugby Memorial Grounds car parks/Cobham Free School car parks as advised. Please remember that parking is not allowed at the Covenham Grounds.
TRAINING KIT
We request that girls either wear Cobham kit or neutral training kit (and not school kit) for training sessions. This avoids visual school divisions and helps the girls integrate into the club. The exception to this is when girls come directly to training from a school match, but they should have a neutral training top on for training. Suitable waterproof jackets and warm clothing are required in the winter. All girls should bring a drink or water bottle with them. For more information see our Kit page on the Homepage of this website.
