ALL TEAMS: OPEN GYM

The intention of these is to give athletes extra time in the gym and have them work on skills they already have. While coaches are present, this isn’t like coach leading class or clinic. We want to encourage athletes to work on perfecting skills they already have or are comfortable throwing. This is not the time or place to try a new skill for the first time. We want to give opportunities but also want to ensure safety. We love seeing our athletes take advantage of this offer and we want to continue to see them coming into the gym!
