Training

Training usually commences in mid-October, Coaches usually will consult with players nominating about a suitable time for training.

Please note: Applicants for selection are required to attend and participate in all training sessions organised by the coach. Where a player is to be absent from a training session, the player must inform the coach by phone and follow up with their reason for their absence in writing. If you are injured you may still be required to attend a training session to assist the coach or for team discussion on tactics & etc.

Travel

Travel to and from Perth is the responsibility of the player to arrange and purchase. Most people will travel to WA by plane. The earlier you make your travel arrangments the better will be your opportunity to get cheaper fares. If you are taking a kayak you will need to make the appropriate arrangement with the carrier for transport of the kayak (eg: as oversize luggage) or arrange for your kayak to get to Perth by other means.

Juniors who are not accompanied with a parent/guardian should speak with the State Team Manager or Junior Team Co-ordinator about travel arrangements.

Accommodation

It is usual for SA State Teams to stay together while competing interstate. Accommodation arrangements will be discussed at the selection events. If you are planning to make alternative accommodation arrangements please speak to the State Team Manager.

Team Fees

Team fees are set by the Canoe SA Polo Technical Committee once notified by the hosting state. Each player is required to pay the team fee prior to the championship. The Team Fee covers the cost of entering a team in the Championships. Team fee's are usually announced by Polo Technical Committee when they have been informed of the cost of Team Entry to the Competition. The Polo Technical Committee usually subsidises junior players (under 18)team fees as an incentive for junior players (and their families). The junior player subsidy in recent years has been approx 30 to 40% of the Junior Category Team Fee. In most cases the Committee also subsidises (by a small amount) all players who are playing in more than one team. The subsidy in this case is approx. 15 to 20% of the team fee. Team fees in 2009 were $96.25 - first Senior Category, $80.00 - second senior category, $65.00 - Junior category. Team fees are usually invoiced to players 4 weeks prior to departure for the competition and must be paid prior to the competition

Uniform

All state team representatives are required to wear a state team t-shirt at medal presentation ceremonies. State Team t-shirt can be purchased from Canoe SA or the State Team Manager for $50.00 prior to departure. If you have been selected please ensure that you have a state team t-shirt (either purchase or borrow from a previous team member)

Invoice for costs associated with State Team

Each selected player will receive an invoice for costs associated with the Championship ( accommodation, team fees, & etc) where possible about 4 weeks prior to departure. Players should (where possible) settle the account prior to the championship
