Coach Development Workshop - A Guide to Mentoring Coaches

It is important that we are able to support the development of coaches/physical activity instructors in Devon, especially those that have only recently undertaken coaching qualifications. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about coaching and want to refresh or develop new mentoring skills.

Mentoring is a rewarding experience, both for the mentor and the coach/instructor they are working with. This nationally accredited workshop aims to support the role of the mentor by:

- developing key coaching related skills such as questioning, listening, analysing and providing feedback
- reviewing the coach's/instructor's own coaching beliefs and practice
- developing their sport or club environment by bringing through new coaches/instructors

The details of the forthcoming are as follows:

Day/Date: Wednesday 11th January 2012
Times: 6.30 - 9.30 PM
Venue: Torbay Olympic Gymnastics Club - http://www.torbaygymnastics.co.uk/
Cost: £35.00
