My name is Luke, I am 18 years old and I am a student Kirklees College studying sport. I wanted to gain this experience coaching as I have not coached outside of college before.
During the project, It was good to observe other coaches and the different method on how they deliver their sessions. All the sessions I took part in were fun and a huge learning curve. My favourite session was rugby, at the end of the coaching drill we played a mini game against the open age team, it was great to engage with them and even better we won!
Learnt how to adjust to the language barrier by using demonstrations and hand gestures, such as thumbs up and down. I have learnt how to improvise sessions in a timely manner to allow the session to smoothly run, some challenges I overcame were not enough equipment, low  numbers and language barrier.
