Derby BMX Club – Coaching Schedule

Following the success of our club over the last year, the influx of new riders and the extra demand from our members for regular weekly coaching for all skill levels, we have restructured our coaching plan to meet these needs.

 

Lauren & Simon, our club coaches have split our riders into 4 groups (see link here for the full list). This now means that everyone cannot be coached in one evening, so we have added an extra coaching day to our schedule and added an extra coach to cover these sessions on a weekly basis so from w/c 28th October 2019 club sessions will run as follows:

 

Every Wednesday night with Kelvin Batey 

Shredders & Snappers (Expert National Standard Riders)

Shredders start @ 6pm

Snappers start @ 7:30pm

Cost £10 per rider

Please add your name to the list in the cabin to show your commitment to this session one week in advance.

​

Every Thursday night with Simon & Lauren

Rookies & Rippers along with any new starters and beginners

Rookies will be 6:30-7:30pm  (including New starters and beginners)

Rippers 7:15-8:15pm (intermediate and those unable to attend Wednesdays)

Cost £3 per rider. 

 

If for any reason any riders are not able to or choose not to attend the Wednesday sessions they are assigned to, they are welcome to attend Thursday Ripper sessions starting at 7.15.

 

No rider can move from group to group without confirmation from Lauren or Simon.

 

Please note due to rider numbers, riders can only attend one coaching session per week plus open gates.
