All GBNI students, annual insurance is overdue for everyone, so download the form and bring it to class ASAP. We’ll start turning guys away from training if they can’t produce proof of insurance. You can find the form here. And, as a reward, here’s a picture of a puppy.
Club rash guards and shorts are now available. Please fill out the order form and return to Conor. If you have any queries see our GBNI Facebook wall
