On Friday 27th Jan 2011 several young people aged 16+ successfully completed their Sport Leaders UK ‘Introduction to Sport Coaching course’ in Bristol as part of the PACT project. The courses were run in partnership with Bristol City Council and took part over 3 sessions and provided them with skills in how to assist in sport coaching. The lads looked at how to maintain a safe sport session; how to plan and adapt a session; how to communicate effectively; and create fun and exciting games.

The project is now linking some of the successful candidates to volunteer at a weekly PACT session which takes place in their local community of Easton.
 Well done to everyone it was hardwork but great fun, and we look forward to hearing great things about your coaching.   Big thanks also to our partners Community Resolve, Midimo Centre and Access Sport.
Look out for more Intro Sport courses coming at Netham Park, The Dings, and St Bedes coming soon...
