If you would like to arrange for an accredited DAV trainer to come to your school to assist your teams in preparing for the 2019 competition, please email your booking details through asap, as availability is limited. These sessions are available at the special price of $60 per hour, per trainer in February and March only. We recommend one trainer for each group of 12 students.
