Have you ever wondered how to…
- Go cross-country faster?
- Go cross-country faster and have lots of fun?
- Win competitions?
Book yourself in for our workshop: wwgcteam@gmail.com
You've done some cross-country flying, or a lot, and you're thinking about going farther or faster, or flying (more) competitions? Maybe even competing in a Nationals, or beyond?
Are there things holding you back – worries about landing out, lack of crew, or just the belief that you simply aren't as good as the others?
We'll show you some simple British Team techniques to help you get more out of your flying and have the right mindset to go farther and faster.
We, the British Women's Team, are flying proof that these techniques and exercises work – as proven by last year's competition results, and the number of women who qualified for the British Team competing in this year's Women's World Gliding Championship (which will take place in the UK, with 2 team members from LGC!).
On Saturday, 2 April, from 6pm, the British Women's Gliding Team will be sharing some of those British Team techniques with you, in a fun and productive workshop on how to go farther and faster.
The workshop will take place in the Withall briefing room.
Feel free to bring along…
·a Southern England chart (don't worry if you haven't got one)
·a notepad and pens
·sandwiches or other sustenance you can have while marking a map! (or we could order a takeaway to be delivered)
There will be a half-time break, and if you have any specific questions please let us know beforehand. Amongst other things we'll be looking at:
·speed to fly, routing, thermal centring, thermal sources, final glides
met tools, flight prep, post-flight analysis, competition tactics
ongoing targeted training
sports psychology techniques to ensure the head is in the right place
There should be something for everyone!
