Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be in Ancaster for the sessions?
Nope! You can join from anywhere with internet. We help athletes all around Hamilton and nearby cities.
Can I just try one session?
The program works best when you do all five sessions because each one builds on what you learned before. Just like you wouldn't skip the middle of a season, each session is important!
What if I don't like it?
If the program isn't right for you after trying it, we can stop and give you money back for any sessions you haven't used yet.

Even though you're part of a team at places like Morgan Firestone Arena or Ancaster Soccer Club, our online sessions are just for you!
