Our committee will then review these forms and email you an invite to the appropriate trial session at a later date. Here you will show off your lifts by completing RPE 7 singles or singles at around 90% of your maxes.
During these sessions the committee will be looking at your enthusiasm for the sport, commitment to training, technique and strength. If you are successful you will recieve an email outlining which squad you have been selected for and the next steps in the process.
