JUNIOR SESSIONS

Two ways to take part

Juniors can join the coached Monday session and the relaxed Friday play session.

Junior coaching

Mondays from 18:30 to 20:00. A coached training session for juniors. Players practise technique, movement and game skills at a level suited to their ability.

Please note: Coaching begins with guidance on correct movement and body use. The aim is to establish proper movement patterns and grips from the start, which is important both for health and for the development of playing skills. There is very little actual match play during the training sessions; a separate junior play session is held on Fridays.

Junior play session

Fridays from 18:30 to 20:00. A relaxed play session for juniors. It works well as a second weekly session alongside junior coaching or for juniors who are interested in more independent play.

AUTUMN 2026

Junior schedule and fees

The two junior autumn sessions are listed separately. Any changes will be announced in MyClub.

Please note: The first free trial sessions are on Friday 14 August 2026 and Monday 17 August 2026 from 18:30 to 20:00 at Kokonhalli. The season fee is paid when the player continues in the group.

Please note that the membership fee must be paid before the playing fees – the junior membership fee is €15 per year. The prices currently shown in MyClub are provisional. The club members will decide the final membership, season and session fees at the Annual General Meeting on 10 August 2026. Any changes will be updated in MyClub after the meeting.
