APPRENTICESHIP SCHEME

DESCRIPTION

Our juniors can become part of the coaching team, to help out in all our programmes and offers, as well as officials to help out running events and competitions.

This allows them to improve their game (they see and understand the sport from a different point of view) and also develop many personal and professional skills, very useful for their future.

Our leaders get paid an hourly rate above the national minimum wage.

On top of all this, they also get other benefits like free match play training sessions or special events (i.e. coaching team meetings).
