Easton Sports Academy Taster Sessions
We have pathways for Rugby, Golf, Football and the one I feel would be relevant to your sport is the Individual Performer Pathway. We have currently got and have previously had students that are from the following sports: tennis, combat sports, athletics, swimming, table tennis, volleyball, cricket, basketball, waterskiing, wheelchair tennis and pralaympic sport to name a few.
The programmes offer the opportunity to study while also focus on athletic development in a student's chosen sport with individualised Strength & Conditioning support 3 times a week and a flexible timetable to allow for access to external training sessions at their own club. In addition to this we will look to support talented athletes with competitive opportunities representing the College in Association of Colleges events and tournaments and local, regional and national NGB competitions too.
If you would like to find out more please visit the College website: Sport Courses | Easton College we have some Sports Academy Taster days coming up, details are attached, I would be very grateful if you could please share this information with your club members and their parents. If you would like any further information about our weekly youth S&C sessions for younger athletes which can compliment their sport specific coaching or if you would like to organise a club session or hire facilities in our new Functional Fitness Area please do get in touch and I can forward these on to my colleagues.
Thank you
