The Player Development Team (PDT) is a group of volunteers who are interested in helping club members improve their skills and game play. If you see a PDT member wearing a shirt with this logo, feel free to approach them and ask them for advice or even if they would have time to play with you and offer some suggestions.
We offer various learning opportunities:
