Course for coaches – Coach 1
– Sport for children and young people.
– Sport and training
– Sports injuries – no thanks

16. and 17 January 2016 another course for coaches will be held.

It will run on Saturday from 09:00 to 20:30 and continue on Sunday from 09:00 to 17:00, in the ÍSF building in Tórshavn.

Instructor: Heri Ziska. The course will be taught in Faroese

Topics:
sports pedagogy, the sporting environment, child development, training, safety and responsibility, ethics and morals. Why train? And how? Warming up, anatomy and physiology, training principles, teaching principles.
The course alternates between theory and practice, so it is a good idea to bring sportswear.
There is no exam, but 100% attendance is required. A certificate of participation will be issued at the end of the course.

The course is part of the coach education programme run by DIF, the Danish sports confederation. It is therefore possible to build further on the course.

Target group:
Coaches, helpers and leaders working with children and young people. Anyone who has an interest in and responsibility for children and young people taking part in sport.

What you will get out of it:
– Knowledge of children’s development, physically, mentally and socially
– You will learn about pedagogy, different types of coaches, setting goals, and the importance of a good sporting environment.
– Concrete ideas for games and training for children and young people
– Knowledge of how the body works and what needs to be taken into account in connection with training. Basic knowledge of training and physiology. Knowledge of how sports injuries can be prevented and of the importance of proper rehabilitation if an injury has occurred.

Heri Ziska will lead the course
