NWTA winter training camps
This is the time of year when people think it is a time to relax, stay warm and stay inside.
You are wrong.
The staff at NorthWest Training Academy is proud to announce they are staying inside as well, but they are going to stay warm in a different way and kids should come join the fun.
NWTA is offering training camps this winter for all athletes, including First Kicks for kids ages 3 and 4, a Speed Camp and a soon-to-be added Futsal. Check it out soon as you could save $10 to $15 per camp if you sign up before Dec. 20
Come join in the fun and work off all of the holiday goodies, and keep the kids active as well.

Also, if there is enough interest, NWTA is thinking about having Adult Speed and Agility session.
