Level 1 Coaching Course

Please see attached the application form for the Level 1 coaching course being held at Nottingham Trent University on Sunday 6th, Sunday 13th & Sunday 27th May 2012, 9am – 6pm on each day.

Nottingham Trent University Level One application May 2012

I have managed to secure some funding to subsidise the cost of this course for participants who are a member of a club in Nottinghamshire, instead of £160 the course will cost just £80. In order to maximise this funding, the application process is now open for Nottinghamshire clubs only and will open to the rest of the Country on 31st January.

Please circulate this information to anyone in your club that might be interested in attending the course. They will need to complete the application form and send it back to Elaina Leithead at the Midlands Office with a cheque for £80 made payable to ‘Notts Hockey Schools and Youth’.

  • Applicants must be a minimum of 16 on the first day of the course.
  • In the event of receiving a high number of applications for this course, we may look at limiting the number of participants per club to ensure the funding is spread across the county.
  • If you are wanting to book on the course and belong to a club in Nottinghamshire, you need to send a cheque for the £80 and not the full course cost of £160.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Kind Regards

New Quicksticks Online Training Course Launched

Quicksticks

EHB are celebrating the launch of the new Quicksticks online training course and the best news is its absolutely FREE!

Available via the Quicksticks website, the course has been designed as an additional training tool to sit alongside the current Quicksticks INSET courses as a more flexible training option.

The course appropriately trains deliverers to introduce hockey at instructor / entry level within a primary school or hockey club setting. It is aimed at non-specialist Primary Teachers, non-teaching schools staff (teaching assistants, lunchtime supervisors etc), and Community Sports or Hockey Club Coaches / Assistants.

Through a series of short videos the course explains the game of Quicksticks, and takes you through the Quicksticks equipment and resources. You can then take your pick from a selection of videos showing how easy Quicksticks challenges and lessons are to set up and deliver. The videos show Quicksticks being played on a variety of surfaces, (artificial pitch, sports hall, playground and netball court), with different ages and group numbers, showing you just how fun and adaptable Quicksticks is!

Take a look and see how you can adapt the delivery of Quicksticks to suit the environment within your school or club at www.playquicksticks.co.uk. Don’t forget registration is FREE and you can log in at any time and access the course when you need to!
