Junior Section Update

Writer: Mark TurnerMark Turner

Dear Parent/Carer and Junior member

We hope you are all well and enjoying the summer break. We are starting to look at and are planning the reopening of our Junior section but we are unable to give an exact return date due to the continued closure of the Werrington Sports Centre. Peterborough City Council have said that it will be sometime in September and we believe that for Juniors to resume we must have access to the centre to allow us to discharge our duty of care to your children. As soon as that date is confirmed then we will contact you again about the resumption of Werrington Joggers Juniors.The lockdown and coronavirus will have affected us all differently, some individuals may have exercised more/less or hardly at all during lockdown and this is fine and is expected as we all have coped with this pandemic in our own way.

With this in mind,we as a coaching team thought it might be useful to give a generalised exercise plan to help increase your child’s fitness levels. This is not mandatory and is only provided as guidance.
