The Coaching Project

Final Evaluation

This project gave students the opportunity to develop a strong knowledge base of coaching expertise. Through the 7 units they studied, pupils were able to build on and extend their knowledge and understanding of the importance of Physical exercises, activities and tasks. Simultaneously, the project allowed students to embark on new news skills and abilities required by the practical aspect of the course. Through leading and participating in the sporting games and tournaments, students were applying and reinforcing the theoretic aspects of the project studied in the various units.

Throughout the entire duration of the course, all participants had to establish an excellent form of communication which proved to be vital for successfully completing the project and liasing with the primary feeder pupils. Both internal and external forms of communications were utilised. Swanlea students had to promote the development of ideas to students in Years 5 and 6 and lead discussions on rules and regulations in the field of sport.

The badminton, basketball and football tournaments were all a great achievement for both Swanlea students and the school as a whole. Furthermore students in year 7 and Primary pupils were extremely satisfied with the quality of coaching they received from the leaders of the project and hope to build on their collaborative relationship beyond the completion of this project.
