What is the programme and features of our holiday coaching clinics?
| BEFORE THE CLINIC |
| Booking |
Booking is essential as it allows Sporting Chance to know the expected numbers in order to allocate the number of coaches appropriately. This ensures that the correct COACH:PARTICIPANT ratio is adhered to. |
| AT THE CLINIC – ON THE DAY |
| Registration |
- Clinic Registration takes place on the first morning of the clinic from 08h30 at the venue.
- This process involves completing an indemnity and info form. You are welcome to DOWNLOAD the form *(insert link)* and bring it with you completed on the morning in order to avoid waiting in a queue.
- Settle payment if not already done so via EFT.
- Sporting Chance requests that everyone arrives early on the first day in order to get all the necessary procedures out of the way by 09h00!
|
| Division In Age Groups |
Once registration is complete the participants are divided into their respective sport codes and age groups. |
| Warm Up |
- The coaches lead the participants through a thorough warm up.
- Includes dynamic and static stretches that target all major muscle groups.
- Warming up is vital, even though these are young supple bodies, it’s still important to stretch in order to avoid injuries.
|
| Shuttles |
- Shuttles are a Sporting Chance tradition and have proven to be an excellent way to start the morning and get the legs and mouths moving.
- Age groups are further divided into smaller groups which act as teams that compete against each other in ‘races’.
- The races are specially adapted to the various sport codes and include fitness and strengthening exercises.
- Cheering for your team is greatly encouraged which promotes the importance of teamwork!
|
| Coaching Programme |
- Coaches for each group follow a constructive coaching programme that has been drawn up specifically for Sporting Chance and ratified by the various Provincial and National associations of South Africa.
- The programme includes working on basic skills as well as advanced coaching techniques and innovative drills finishing off with competitive match play at the end of each day.
- The programme allows for intensive personalized coaching and encourages each participant to play, learn and improve.
- Each day the programme varies with different strategic focus areas and specialized drills.
|
| Mini Tournament & Prize Giving |
