Hi BritDisc
Ive noticed there has been lots of talk about development and such on
britdisc so I thought Id bring to you my problem.
Recently i have been contacted by 4 or 5 school in my local area and
it seems they are in a predicament with key stage 4 P.E. (years 10+)
Apparently, its becoming increasingly stagnant as kids either want to
play football or do nothing! Teachers are having a hard time getting
the kids involved so in an attempt to get more kids involved with
sport they contacted me (captain of my local Junior team) to come and
give a demo.
The demo went down really well! and we had so many kids interested it
was unbelievable, and now the other school want us to come in and give
demos and set up a mini league! But its all to fast!
Our team was started by a very inexperienced player and we only had 6
people to start with! we taught are selves most things and Kev Lowe
filled in the gaps later on. Since then our team has developed and I
made sure i went to many other teams trainings to teach my self how to
Coach!
However this is another level of coaching and I have only been playing
shy of 2 years. Iv had allot of experience and would consider myself a
decent player with a good understanding of the sport, but still I need
help. If anyone has any advise on how to Coach, set up school teams,
and develop a mini league I would be grateful for anything!! I'm
worried that the kids will love the sport but then grow tired of it,
as our local junior development tournament (hosted by Kev Lowe) is a
long way off. I lack the experience of getting and keeping a team
going that is not my own. The schools would prefer that I had coaching
qualifications from the UKUA but on a closer inspection it seems the
UKUA dont really offer anything on this ground that is easy to
obtain.... May be its time the initial stages of the coaching scheme
moved on, and grew?
I could do with recommendations of websites and such, I'm only a
student (still Junior) myself and have limited funds, so can't really
splash out on something that may not help me.
