Pre-Season Training has now moved back to UQ Oval 7, St Lucia. For those of you unsure of how to get there, when driving along Sir Fred Schonell Drive towards the University, Oval 7 is the first field you see at the first roundabout you come to along SFSDrive. Turn right at the roundabout and park anywhere along the street for Oval 7.

Training for all teams is Tuesday and Thursday nights at 6pm until further notice.

Running shoes and towel are a must – no boots are required until further notice.

Please spread the word to those who might not be on the email list or Facebook pages.
Please also wear new preseason singlets if you have them. We will have them there on sale if you need one at a cost of $25.

Any queries please give me a buzz on 0412 288 544.
