π The next generation π
This evening, I worked with a group of the teenagers from Gillingham Anchorians Hockey Club
We spent three hours completing England Hockey leadership course.
The aim of the course was to:
β’ Introduce the key qualities of being a good leader
β’ Demonstrate the roles and responsibilities of being a leader
β’ Highlight the importance of effective communication, both verbal and nonverbal
β’ Establish how a good leader can motivate players
We discussed the importance of the younger generation taking on leadership roles within the club and allowing them to gain experiences to take the club forward over the coming years.
This season, the group will start to take on internal roles - helping with junior training, writing match reports, taking photos and videos for social media posts, being role models for the U8βs, U10βs and U12βs and helping at social events.
The next generation of Anchorians HC - full of ideas and motivation. Good luck team!
