Various schools and clubs rely on volunteers (often parents) to coach children in their chosen sports. These volunteers are few which leads to the number of teams chosen, kept to a minimum.
This results in many children not being given the opportunity to participate in sports, as they do not ‘make the grade’. Consequently these children become totally inactive and spend too muchof their spare time in front of the television and playing Play Station.
Further to this, whether your child is a good or mediocre player, time for coaching is often limited and there is little focus on the finer points that so often make a difference in aplayer’s ability.
We aim to fill these gaps in coaching but must stress that we are neither an academy nor a club. Our objective is to take children in their chosen sport and enhance their SKILLS. These can then be put into practice at their clubs and/or schools, giving some a better opportunity to be chosen for a team or, for the already accomplished player, enhancing their abilities.
Further to this we will instill a sporting discipline as well as encourage good sportsmanship, which the children can then carry through onto the sports field.
A child’s overall attitude towards the game is vital in sport. We offer clinics which are held on a Saturday over a 4 week period as well as a 5-day clinic held during school holidays.
We endeavour to obtain the best coaches in all fields who have a passion for the sport as well as an understanding of children.
Weaim to have a maximum of 8 children per coach but, if needed, one on one coaching can be arranged.
