Park Etiquette
Update: From 23rd September, training reverts to Blenheim Park over the Winter season. For safety, please wear reflective vests or jackets and/or lights in Blenheim Park. Any questions about training, please feel free to ask, Roger Bradley.
Juniors: The club does not have a junior section with the necessary safeguarding to accommodate under 18s at training sessions without parents/guardians being present. Children of members are welcome to join sessions under the following conditions:
– a parent/guardian needs to be present and responsible.
– this means being aware of how your child is managing the session and working at a level and volume appropriate to their age and ability.
– it also means ensuring your child understands the session and any safety instructions that apply – e.g. keep to one side, watch out for other runners, etc.
Finally, all of us at a session have a responsibility to look out for everyone else there of all ages.
