We are now continuing with the Swedish youth coach education programme. On Saturday 28 September and on Saturday and Sunday 12 and 13 October, a coaching course will be held for the 10–14 age group. The course builds on the 7–10 course we held last time, but new coaches are welcome too. The course leaders will be Randi Kúrberg and Heri Ziska. They hold instructor qualifications from Sweden and also have very extensive practical experience. The course will cover all the different disciplines in athletics, with particular attention to how training is best suited to this specific age group.
Registration is done through the registration system here on the site. FÍF hopes as many people as possible will take part in the course, both new coaches and those who have already started the course series. The course is free of charge. The full programme for the course is below the photo.
