Upcoming Workshops for Coaches and Leaders

Building on the success of the Technical 1 Shot Putt session last month, the club are pleased to announce a further two opportunities for club coaches and leaders.

The first of these workshops will take place on Sunday 3rd June at the Arena, starting at 9.30am. The change of date was put in place to accommodate any coach delivering sessions on a Saturday. The sessions last for three hours and are largely practical in nature. If there are any athletes who wish to attend, to be put through their paces, we need a maximum of eight athletes. Please speak to your coach, who will put you forward for the session. Darren Ritchie, Commonwealth Games and GB International Long Jumper will lead this session.

The second workshop is Technical Development 1 Speed and Hurdles, this session is similar to the previous sessions in the structure. Although this session is on speed, it has a relevance to all events, every event needs speed in one way or another. The session will take place on Saturday 23rd June, at the Arena, with a start time of 9.30am. It is hoped that any planned sessions for the Saturday will be rescheduled by the coaches. Athletes will need for this session and I would ask athletes to speak their coach, who will be able to confirm any spaces available. Allan Scott, Commonwealth Games and GB International Sprint Hurdler will lead this session.

Any coach or leader interested in the above sessions, please pass your name to jgoldie1968@gmail.com

If there are any professional development workshops, which you feel would benefit you and the club, please speak with Jim Goldie.
