If you are unable to commit to the compulsory training camps and regional trainings you should not apply to trial. Attendance records will be taken and failure to comply with the expectation of a minimum of 85% attendance without reasonable explanation and permission given via the Head Coach, will result in making you ineligible for selection.
Illness and Injury must be reported and you must advise the Head coach prior to the training if you are unable to attend due to this reason.
