A GAA Coaching Course has been organised for Transition Year Students on Tuesday 21st and Wednesday 29th of November from 9:00-13:00 both days. For these days students will be learning the fundamentals of GAA coaching. They will look at session planning and how to successfully manage and run a training session. They will critically analyse, and self & peer evaluate their training session to improve and develop going forward. The course will run in both a classroom setting and on the pitch both in the school facilities. Throughout the day students will develop skills in group management, teamwork and self-evaluation. These are all skills not just relevant to sport but also very much required in the current world of work. 

The course will start at 9:00 sharp and finish at 1:00 PM.

They will need to wear active wear/ track suit for the duration of the course but will have to change back into uniform for the last two classes of the day.
