BRITISH SUB-JUNIORS AND JUNIORS CLASSIC CHAMPIONSHIPS
As the championship nears us, we wanted to provide you with some reminders from the organiser.
- Spectators
- Are not only encouraged to come but entry is free!
- There is still a live request for Volunteers for the Wednesday set up as well as during the championships for the Thursday and Friday.
- If you would like to help please fill in the form to let them know you want to be part of something great.
- As this is a National competition, a coaching licence will be required for anyone looking to be in the warm up and holding area.
- Clarification on the coaching licence, as well as a video guiding you on how to apply, can be found on the new Coaching Licence page
- It is extremely important that you check out the information in full as simple mistakes keep occurring, such as uploading certificates without applying for the licence
