Coach Education Programme 2013

Coaching Multi-Skills Project

Nottinghamshire County Council are running a Multiskills Project for 2013 for coaches who wish to develop their knowledge and skills.

In this project, they can access two very beneficial workshops;

February 25th 6-9pm – Games and Ideas Workshop
March 4th 6-9pm – Fundamentals of Movement
(Venue – Joseph Whitaker Sports College, Rainworth)

Coaches will also receive some multiskills kit after the completed training that can be utilised to enhance their coaching sessions that are delivered for the future.

Any coaches interested must be a minimum of level 1 qualified in their chosen sport and can attend both of the above dates.

Please find attached a short and simple form that any interested coaches will need to fill in and return to Martin Cook (mcook@Mansfield.gov.uk) or Pete Forster (pete.forster@nottscc.gov.uk) by Friday 18 January 2013. There is a short section for a referee (e.g. fellow club coach, club committee rep etc) to fill in with some supporting information regarding the coach, their development needs and why they/the club would benefit greatly from being part of the multiskills training project.

This is a great opportunity for any developing coach to enhance their knowledge, skills and training.

Level One Umpires Course – October 2011

Further to the Notts Clubs Open Meeting held on 13th July 2011, the Nottinghamshire Hockey Association is organising a Level One Umpires Course during October 2011.

The course has been organised to encourage all Nottinghamshire Hockey Clubs to educate more members as umpires; as this was identified as a focus-area within the meeting. In recognition of the importance of educating more umpires within the county, the NHA has applied a large amount of funding to this course, resulting in candidate fees that are far lower than the national average of £40-£50 per individual. The NHA is also keen to support the umpiring needs of the Notts Women’s Hockey League, so please encourage your female members to apply!

Details of the course are attached and summarised below:

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!
