TY Coaching Workshops
Over the past couple of weeks, over 50 TYs have been trained as coaches in two different programmes.
Amy from Rowing Ireland trained a group in the Get Going Get Rowing programme, and these TYs have already started delivering these sessions to some 1st and 2nd Year PE classes. They will also be offering lunchtime taster sessions for any students who would like to give rowing a try! (Tag rowingireland)
Ciara and Emer from Badminton Ireland delivered the BadminTEEN Shuttle Time Course to 26 of our TY girls. This is a HerMoves programme aimed at encouraging teenage girls in secondary schools to take up badminton and establish their own clubs. This initiative is designed to provide young women with the tools and confidence needed to engage in physical activity, fostering both personal growth and community building through sport. The girls will be delivering badminton lessons to PE classes throughout the year and will also be offering lunchtime sessions! (Tag badminton.ireland & hermoves.ie).
Having these students as leaders of activity in our school will hopefully help to get more students engaged in physical activity during the year!
Huge thanks to Clare Sports Partnership (tag claresports) for their support in providing these programmes and the use of their rowing machines!
