Equipment? - will be available to borrow and be allocated for the period of the Clinic but players may also bring their own. Players will need: weather appropriate sporty clothing including a waterproof if rain is forecast; a packed lunch, a snack or two, some water (ideally not a sugary drink); a hand sanitiser.

Leadership? - The Lead coach for the Clinic will be Peter Compton, the Spencer Lacrosse Club Head Coach supported by experienced coaches from the Senior Club – most are players who have started in our own Junior Programme but are now playing at University.

Covid – 19? - The event will be run in compliance with the current Covid – 19 regulations.

Players who have been asked to ‘self-isolate’ during the period of the Clinic should advise the Head Coach and withdraw from the Clinic – the fee will be returned.

Weather - In severe weather, we may have to cancel all or part of the event. If that is the case, the relevant Clinic fee will be returned.
