How to Deliver Engaging Sessions for Young People
Sport England’s research shows a dropout rate across most sports around the ages of 14–25. This is a practical-based workshop that will develop your coaching to help you better meet the needs of this age group. Through the use of practical examples you will learn about new participants’ needs, including how to build their self-confidence, motivation and self-esteem. This in turn will help you improve the coaching experience of young people and help to ensure they keep coming back for more sport.
You Will Learn How to Identify:
- different stages of young people’s participation development
- differences in coaching styles that meet young people’s requirements
- differences in coaching styles in different environments: schools, satellite clubs, colleges, universities and clubs.
Venue : Stafford College (Sports Hall Reception), Earl Street, Stafford, ST16 2QR
Date : Wednesday, 16 March 2016
Time : 18:00 to 21:00 (GMT)
The cost of this course will be £15 plus booking fee, for further information and to book on to this workshop please visit www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/how-to-deliver-engaging-sessions-for-young-people-tickets-20140743506
