Introduction to Coaching Gaelic Games Course Information
The course is aimed at beginner coaches from across the Gaelic games codes of Hurling and Camogie.
The ICGG Award course has been designed to support new coaches develop a solid foundation of knowledge, skills, competencies, and values for coaching the child, youth or adult playing population.
The Introduction to Coaching Gaelic Games award is structured around three key elements:
The Coach | ‘Being a Coach’, ‘How to Coach’, and ‘Preparation for Planning’.
The Player | ‘Who are you coaching?’. Whether they are child, youth or adult players, male or female and address the need to be inclusive.
The Game | a focus on movement for Gaelic games, skill development and games.
This programme will provide coaches with awareness, knowledge and experiences related to:
Why do you Coach? | Each coach is an individual, and each will bring their own skills and characteristics to our games.
How do you Coach? | A set of skills and behaviours which coaches can use in games and training sessions
What do you Coach? | The games and developmental activities that can be used by coaches, and how to structure sessions to hone the skills of players
Who do you Coach? | The specific players that a coach has within their team/group; looking at age, stages of the player pathway they are at, the importance of inclusivity and how it impacts upon their coaching
