What is the difference between a junior & a senior trainee?
A junior trainee is a person who is between the ages of 12 16. Junior trainees train in the same sessions as senior trainees however they are separated into their own group so that they are not mismatched in terms of size or strength when attempting the more complex holds or techniques. In exceptional circumstances someone over the age of 16 may be put into the junior group due to size or skill level.
