2018 Talent Development Day - U14 Fencers
Salle Ossian Fencing Club will be running a series of talent development day’s for u14, u12 and u10 fencers. This is now open to fencers of any weapon.
The purpose of the day is to develop young talent by preparing them for competition. We’ll be looking at the physical, mental, tactical and lifestyle aspects of the game and help young promising athletes develop towards being effective and ethical competitors. We’ll provide each of the fencers with an athlete profile and smart goals that the fencer can work on at their own club with their own coach.
Scottish Fencing Academy - Positive Behaviour Management in Sport
Coaching children and young people can be a very rewarding experience. However there will be times when the behaviours of some young participants will leave you feeling confused, frustrated and deskilled!
This workshop will help you to work out why unwanted behaviours occur, how to respond to the challenges as they crop up and how to prevent these from happening again and again. Identifying what creates a positive coaching environment and taking actions that will encourage the types of behaviour you want is the key to successful behaviour management.
