> @Tadhg L > I have just joined PDP Tadhg, great to have you on board! If you have specific questions, fire them through and no doubt some of our members and contributors can chime in. The ages you're working with are challenging and enjoyable. Personally I believe at that age we should be encouraging participation, play and the opportunity to develop a love for whatever sport children are involved in. The biggest danger can often be an adult paradigm on a what should be a child's experience.
