Training Day for Coaches

Paul Bowden reports:

09/01/17: On Sunday 8th January Howard Wiseman ran a four hour training session for those fairly new to Fives coaching in schools.

Most of those who came were really inexperienced, indeed two of them had never been on a court before. Howard covered most aspects of the game and introduced the coaches to a wide range of fun drills and skills which they all enjoyed immensely. All were most enthusiastic and had a great afternoon honing their own skills and learning how to deliver essential lessons in a fun way to their pupils.

Three schools were represented: Oakham, RGS High Wycombe and Holyport College together with a prospective GAP year coach for next year.

It is hoped that we shall be able to organise more similar courses in the future.
