Volunteers will help local coaches run training sessions from
6am to 8am for young athletes in the community as well as the school.
Evening Training sessions, starts from 2 pm to 5pm
This may
sound daunting, but you will soon realise that you possess an understanding of
athletics that the young players are eager to have. The rewards are great
because the raw talent is often there but the experience of a structured
training environment is lacking. Through strength and conditioning work, group
fitness sessions, and of course, dedicated athletics training in particular
disciplines, your athletes will develop rapidly. Furthermore, you will not be
left alone. You will work alongside our in-country team and our other volunteer
sports coaches.
Volunteers can also assist in teaching children various
skills such as fitness training. In some instances, sports coaching involves
teaching children about healthy lifestyle awareness and team building.
Volunteers will have 1-3 periods of sports education per
day, and outside of this will assist teaching in the classroom. This can of
course vary depending on the activities planned for the day, and the
volunteer’s creativity and initiative to conduct their own physical education
lessons with the children.
