Message from Coach Turner…
We are so excited for the very first Speed Geeks Winter Session of 2018. We have a few athletes that have registered but did not schedule their Functional Movement Screening, and athletes that went to the Screening but haven’t registered! 

Don’t worry, all screenings can be rescheduled with our physical therapist, Debbie Wolpert. 
Please register for the Speed camp at https://form.jotform.com/72954979484176 We need this very important athlete information. Thank you in advance! There are still a few spots available!!
 
We look forward to seeing everyone at 5:45pm on Monday at Saugus High School. If it rains we will schedule a make up day at a later date.
