Coaching Plan workshop

From Gerry O’Malley, Coaching Officer: To plan for the future development of Ballinrobe GAA Club a coaching committee has been established and tasked with developing a coaching plan. The committee has met on a number of occasions and the next stage of the process is to conduct a workshop for all stakeholders so that every member of the club can have an input into the path the club will take into the future. The workshop will take place in top room in the Valkenburg Hotel at 8.00pm on Wednesday, December 4th. All attendees will be broken into groups to discuss a number of topics associated with coaching and player development and then each topic will be thrown open to all to discuss in more detail. Parents and club members, and any other interested party who has an interest in the sporting, social and physical development of the children of the parish, and the desire to see Ballinrobe GAA Club to the forefront of top class coaching and competing consistently in the final stages of senior championship football, are requested to attend. The more people who attend, the more opinions we get, thereby producing a more comprehensive coaching plan.
