INDIVIDUAL AND SMALL GROUP LESSONS
Lessons can be an invaluable part of any development plan
- Choose a coach from the “Epic Approved List” and contact him/her.
- Be prepared with your schedule to work out some dates
Guidelines
- Epic Players should do lessons with Epic-approved coaches only. This is for both safety as well as continuity of training.
- If a player wishes to do a lesson with a coach who is not Epic-approved, (s)he should ask the coach to reach out to Epic to request approval.
- Players should know and follow their school and team rules for lessons during the school season. IHSAA & IHSA both have guidelines.
- Players may not miss an Epic event (practice, tourney, etc) for a lesson.
- Parents should be present during lessons.
- Players should not overwork themselves with lessons. Due to the length of the season, we recommend 5 or fewer total contact days per week
- Parents should not expect the USAV insurance to be valid during a lesson
- Lesson coaches are outside contractors. Epic is not responsible for any actions or injuries sustained during a lesson.
- In the case of group lessons if more than 5 members from a team are involved, then the entire Epic team must be invited. (they do not have to participate)
- Lessons are not required, nor are they a prerequisite for an Epic player.
- Lessons cancelled less than 48 hours prior to the lesson time should still be paid for.
