Cue Sports Coaching Weekend

Anne — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 03:17:54 +0000

FOR ALL PERSONS BETWEEN 14 YEARS AND 21 YEARS OF AGE

A Coaching weekend will be held on 13-14 November at the ACBS Clubrooms (formerly Snooker World), in Royal Oak, Auckland. This weekend will be run by certified IBSF coaches along the lines of the Snooker Gym coaching format. All interested male and female players are asked to register by 16 October 2010. The coaching forum is aimed at all cue sports (not just snooker) and will be beneficial to all who attend.

Registration fee for the two days of coaching is NZ$30 and this covers breakfast and lunch for both days. Some financial support is available depending on circumstances to cover travel and accommodation for those attending.

All are welcome to register, but this forum is aimed at the younger generation of players from the ages 14-21 years of age and depending on numbers, the younger players will be given first preference.

To register send $30 (address below) or register at the ACBS Clubrooms office (713 Mt Albert Road, Royal Oak). Please do this early to avoid disappointment.

If parents or guardians are attending, please notify so all are catered for regarding accommodation and/or travel.

All coaches that wish to attend please contact (as below) so a programme can be set up to cater for all (coaches please bring all relevant material for the weekend).

At the conclusion of the weekend a debrief will beheld so that all involved can give their thoughts as to the progression of this type of coaching format.
