Introduction;
The Fast Track Programme is in it’s fifth year, and there can be 
no doubt that it is helping to raise performance standards for the players who attend and their clubs. In season 2011/12 the Fast Track Programme is again being targeted at the work of the setters.
There will be three Fast Track sessions, with each session being presented in two locations. The Fast Track Programme is for male and female players, and the hope is that each of the players will be accompanied by their Club Coach. The overall programme looks like this;
