All this means a great Country Players weekend.
This is not to say you will be playing all this by the time the weekend is over but you will be able to see how it is done then practise when you get home.
We get a mixture of abilities on the weekend but our tutors are used to dealing with this. If you are worried about being up to a Country Weekend then do a Strugglers Weekend first.
