BAFCA 2009 Convention Update

BAFCA is delighted to confirm the venue for the 2009 BAFCA Convention will be the outstanding Holywell Park/Burleigh Court conference centre at Loughborough University. This purpose-built conference centre is one of the leading conference facilities in the UK with easy access to road, rail and air links.

BAFCA President, Jim Messenger, said: "We wanted a top-quality facility this year both to raise the level and to match the high standard of our special guest speakers, Shawn Watson - University of Nebraska, and Mike Hankwitz - Northwestern University. In Hollywell Park and Burleigh Court we have undoubtedly secured the best facilities ever to be used for a BAFCA convention."

The convention runs from Friday 3rd to Sunday 5th July and features three-days of clinics, meetings, BAFCA video library and activities for coaches. Entrance is free to all current BAFCA members. Day tickets can be obtained at the event for non-members on each day for just £5.00.
