In recent times, Active Schools Coordinators have been working closely with the Athletics Development Officer to roll out the Elevating Athletics resource pack to schools - a fantastic pack containing numerous activity cards, a DVD showing good practice examples and general information that is valuable for teachers, leaders and coaches. An Elevating Athletics CPD course has also been organised and was well received by teachers and volunteers.
As with other sports and activities, we provide training, equipment and mentoring in athletics to support volunteers delivering extra-curricular clubs. Through the work of the Active Schools Coordinators a number of new athletics clubs have been created in schools e.g. the Run-Jump-Throw club at Gavinburn Primary School.
If you would like more information on Athletics or would like to get involved, please contact us.
