Potential coaches need to have good experience in coaching, childcare, education and much more. Our staff have a wide range of backgrounds from ex-professional athletes to qualified teachers. As a team, our coaches have a wealth of experience in a variety of sports and settings at various levels from working in schools at grassroots level to working with elite professional athletes.
“We aim to ensure that every child who participates in one of our programmes not only learns but has fun, sports can bring many things to a child, confidence, self esteem, friendship, creativity, a healthy lifestyle and much more. The impact of playing sports can last a life time. We like to think that every child who passes through our doors goes away with a good experience and some kind of skill or knowledge which they can use again and again”
