Latest News:
Welcome back for the 2023-2024 Season (September 1 2023 to August 31 2024)
Hello everyone,
We have exciting news for the New season.
Starting September 15 2023 we will be offering a third night of training for the senior class members. We have been working very hard trying to negotiate a third day with Woodview executive and thankfully we have acquired it. This means more focused training for recreational and competitive members. The Friday trainings are for senior class only and will run 7:00pm to 9:00pm and will be open trainings. This means members can focus on their individual needs whether it be technical or competitive. Along with these trainings there will be an increase in the monthly fees.
Senior class fees:
The new Senior class fees will include the extra Friday trainings plus all gradings and coaching during tournaments.
Nightly fee: $15 per night
Monthly fee: $90 per month starting September 1 2023 (a savings of $90 per month compared to paying nightly).
Yearly (September 1 2023-August 31 2024) Senior class memberships will be $900 ( a savings of $180 per year from paying monthly) Must be paid by September 30 2023 to take advantage of the savings. Please speak to Erin or Rae at the front desk if you plan on paying for the whole year up front.
Junior Class fees:

Monthly fees: $60 per month (a $10 increase) (a savings of $60 per month compared to paying nightly) This includes all club trainings, gradings, and coaching during tournaments.
