Below are the steps to request and confirm coaching sessions with FGS Coaching.  Our #1 goal is to get your session completed ASAP-- while managing limited public track/turf access, changing weather, slow communication from school facilities mgrs., and high seasonal demand.  (FGSC athlete roster is capped, with a Wait List, to ensure fair access for everyone to weekly sessions within these constraints.)

*** To support your sustainable skills development (and your FGSC teammates) -- all clients/athletes agree to follow the guidelines below. You also imply agreement to the FGSC waiver by attending any session. (Waiver is viewable here: https://tinyurl.com/FGSCwaiver.) ***

HOW TO REQUEST A SESSION
1. Review “Coach Frank’s Weekly Availability” email sent to you each MONDAY. (Sunday in summer.). Pls. read the entire message-- especially “Coaching Sites” section.
2. Text your session request for higher priority/faster service. (Provide backups if flexible.)
3. Reply to your “Confirmation” text from Coach Frank.

INCLUDE IN YOUR REQUEST
- Preferred TIME, DAY, and SITE-- from the options listed in the Coaching Availability Message.

PLUS-- additional times, days, locations if your availability is flexible.
- Providing only one day/time lowers your coach’s ability to schedule your request, and its priority.
- If your availability changes from the original request-- pls. message Coach immediately, to save everyone time revising the schedule.

SESSIONS: Request - Book - Confirm
Sessions are generally "FIRST REQUESTED / FIRST RESERVED” and based on track availability and client demand for that day. (Available slots are typically filled by 5P on the day ​the Weekly ​Availability ​Message ​is ​sent.) Your session is officially booked when you receive a “CONFIRMATION” message w/ session logistics from Coach Frank and you reply “Confirmed.”

CONFIRMATION
May be delayed due to slow school admin. communication and site availability changes.
- Wed sessions: confirmed by TUES.
- Thurs - Sun sessions: confirmed by WED.
​(Summer sessions: confirmations sent ​SU/M.)

SITE(s):
We coach at the site most clients requested for that day. (I can’t travel mid-day, between multiple locations, on high demand days.)  We use public or “free” tracks/turf fields-- so I cannot reserve sites for individual use in advance, only “week of.” Popular sites:

- BELLEVUE: International School
- REDMOND: Redmond High School
- SHORELINE:  Shoreline Stadium
_______________________________

WEATHER + PROPER CLOTHING
We train in the rain-- it’s Seattle. ;)  However, we do not train in heavy rain or wind, extreme cold/heat, snow/ice, or lightning-- each may cancel a session.  ​If the athlete is not geared up appropriately for weather (access to 3-layers, hat/gloves, water, etc.)​, the session is cancelled and counted.

PEAK SEASONS + WAIT LIST
You may be waitlisted based on your position in the order session requests were received and demand for the day/time you requested.

If we can't accommodate your request THIS week-- wait listers have priority the NEXT week. (Pls. submit your request by 3P on the day the next weekly availability message is sent.)

MISC.
- CANCELLATION: 24-HOUR advance notice is required, or session is counted.
- EXPIRATION: Sessions expire 60 or 90 days after purchase. (See your Pak outline for details.)
- REFUNDS: Are not available. FGSC is not liable for any impact on session scheduling or expiration resulting from changes to a client’s work or school schedule, travel plans, or illness/injury; or if a client chooses not to follow scheduling guidelines, training instructions, or read messages.
- SESSION PREP: Coach uses 5-mins. of each session to update notes
