Hi New to the site and haven,t being throwing for a few years but getting back into it. i was reading through a lot of posts about training schedules and don,t understand a lot of the techniques like Swanbeck throw seesaw with med ball can anyone give a general break down of these and the rest  is there a general meet anytime soon where you or some gather for a weekend and train-practice as i,m from ireland and have a serious lack of coaching in this event or would one of the coaches on here agree to help if i was to fly over for a day or 2 and run through the basics of a winter programme to help guide me along |

sounds like you are prepared to be dedicated if you are offering to fly over for a day or two...
a lot of people are in the final stages of their season and wouldn't be looking at winter training programmes for a few weeks.
i'm sure if you are patient though someone will offer some services to you :-)

Am in Dundalk and train with St.Peters AC yes am keen as when I was younger I was training a lot on my own and developed a lot of bad habbets and by the time I got coaching we spent most of the time undoing my bad habbits before I could progress. I don,t want to repeat that mistake and get injured again. am just looking guidance at this stage if anyone could put there penny,s worth in would be much appreciated  |

Our lass has the Blackberry Storm and it's incredible for internet use - whether it's searching...MSN....E-mails it's just like using a key board at home.
Which Blackberry have you got Nije, as I don't understand how you can have problems with it if it's like our lasses.

Terry lives in Switzerland these days.
I think he is on the Swiss Athletics Governing Body, but not sure.
Paddy McGrattan coaches Javelin in Ireland but not sure if he is in Ulster or Erin.

off topic a bit, my GF has the storm and it is the worst piece of kit ever produced by blackberry. she has had to have a replacement already because the last one ceased to work and the screen broke dropping it on a carpeted floor. the replacement one is just as bad, it keeps crashing and does it's own thing. when her contract is over i shall be using it for target practice
