In early September the Development Team will be publishing a full list of Coach Education Courses, and launching our Fit4Life Meet n Train programme for clubs as well as continuing our club support scheme. For this, and all news and information on our development programmes and initiatives, check out website www.athleticsireland.ie and click onto the Development section. Development Days The Development Team hope to link more closely with the Coaching Department in the future to respond to the needs of clubs around the country. To this end, the first of a series of Development Days is being held in the South East region on Saturday September 22nd. (Full Size Flyer) This Development Day aims to give both athletes and anyone involved in athletics; parents, teachers or coaches, an opportunity to come along and participate in or observe a number of individual events being coached by specialist coaches. Many people have expressed the desire to be able to access further information or ‘upskilling’ in individual events following on from their participation in our coach education courses, and this Development Day will help to provide such an opportunity in this region. The cost of participation in the Development Day is just €5, and application forms together with fees, should be returned to Jacqui Freyne, Director of Development, Knockbordan House, Grove, Fethard, Co.
