Ulster GAA Skills Coaching Programme

Ulster GAA are delivering a Skills Coaching Programme across the province over the coming months.

Why we are delivering this….Technical proficiency is the bedrock of creating better players who will deliver better games.

What the workshops offers …3 workshops dedicated to breaking down and re building the key skills. Coaches will also be trained to deliver this expertise to other coaches in their clubs.

Workshop 1: Kicking & Catching – This is an interactive indoor workshop (Hall/Gym). Club coaches will be taken through the coaching points of various kicking/catching skills. At the end of this session the coaches will know the coaching points of kicking and catching and be able to coach these skills through various activities.

Workshop 2: Tackling and Evasion – This is an interactive indoor workshop (Hall/Gym). Club coaches will be taken through the coaching points of various tackling/evasion skills. At the end of this session the coaches will know the coaching points of tackling and evasion and be able to coach these skills through various activities.

Workshop 3: Coaching the Coaches – This is an interactive indoor workshop (Hall/Gym). Club coaches will be taken through tutoring skills (theory) and get the opportunity to practise these skills with the rest of the group.
