Ask the Coach
Dear Coach: I want to
switch from the 7:30am Earlybirds to the 6:30am Very Earlybirds. Can I do
that on-line? An Earlybird
Dear A. Earlybird: No, as you are switching programs,
you need to contact the office directly ( 2nd floor or 520-4480, 8:30am-4:30pm
M-F).
Dear Coach: Is
the 6:30am Very Earlybirds more advanced than the 7:30am Earlybirds?
Another Earlybird
Dear A. Earlybird: No, all the Masters groups cater to
the same wide range of abilities.
