I would like to personally thank every single player who attended any of our events over the week. Thank you to the parents and carers who got their children involved. The support you have shown the us all at Phoenix is greatly appreciated.

We thoroughly enjoyed every part of each program and the players light up our time spent together. I would like to thank our fantastic coaches for giving up their time through the week to assist. You help is enormous.

Huge thank you to Dan and the team at CrossFit Townsville for all your hard work. Our players benefit hugely with every interaction.

For now we will continue with our 6 week U12-U15 Academy for the remainder of the year. For everything else we look forward to getting dates together soon for 2020.
