Cavan Coaching and Games’ new Club Player Development Programme is starting this Wednesday 7th November. This is a new initiative targeting every 13 year old player in the county and inviting them to a series of coaching sessions taking place before Christmas.
The purpose of these sessions is to expose each player to focused skills training as well as basic movement and flexibility exercises.
These sessions will take place indoors in Regional venues around the county on Wednesday nights lasting one hour and will be delivered by Cavan GAA coaches. Club coaches are invited to attend and see if they can incorporate some of what they see into their own training sessions at club level in 2019.
There will be five nights taking place before Christmas held in four separate locations (Killinkere GAA, Breifne College, Drumlane GAA and Cornafean GAA) spread around the county to minimise the amount of travelling players will have to do. These indoor sessions will last one hour from 6.30pm to 7.30pm (except Drumlane which is from 6 to 7pm) on the following dates:
– Wednesday 7th November
– Wednesday 14th November
– Wednesday 21st November
– Wednesday 28th November
– Wednesday 5th December
Clubs have already been contacted as to which venue they should send all their players (born in 2005) to. If you have any questions please contact the coach attached to your club’s venue.
