Transition Year Students in Football Skills Coaching
2 time All Ireland League of Ireland winner Sean Buckley has been in touch.
He runs a football skills school based in South Dublin, which has been successfully operating for three years. The school provides foundational skills training for children aged 5 to 12, focusing on essential football techniques.
Due to reaching capacity with current players, there is an opportunity for Transition Year students to assist with coaching. This would offer valuable experience in sports education and coaching. As well as a great opportunity for Community participation as part of the Gaisce Award.
The programme aims to provide a structured and organised environment for youth football in Ireland, inspired by the level of organisation seen in other sports such as rugby.
For those interested in participating or seeking further information: sign up with the form below.
A sample video showcasing the coaching program can be viewed here:
