Coach & Volunteer Evening - Thursday 29 July 2010

On Thursday July 29 at the GCHA clubhouse there will be a coach seminar for all junior and senior coaches . Current GCHA High Performance coach and Olympian Brent Livermore along with QAS and HQ High Performance Coach Carl Dalton will be presenting. I realise this is not a great deal of notice but I have recognised there is a window of opportunity to get both of these two men together next week to service our members so I am siezing it.

Prior to this drinks and nibblies will be provided to convey our gratitude to the associations representative team coaches, managers and junior umpire mentors. This will take place in the GCHA club house and these valued volunteers will receive complimentary drinks for an hour.

Below is the overview for the evening. You will notice a very small portion of the time in the beginning will be to provide an outline of the culture the association would like to instil within club coaches to support the new junior umpire mentor program. This is particulary important for our junior coaches.
