6 3 10 Level 2 Cricket Coaching Course - assessment

Tutors: Gareth Davis, Richard Wilkinson, Mark Beardshall, Alex Morris.
This was it! We’d been through the learning process and the coaching sessions, prepared our lesson plans and practised our demonstration. We’d waded through the course notes and completed our evaluations.
The children, our coaching guinea pigs, had arrived from Green Top Primary School and Fishlake Cricket Club – now it was down to us to prove to the four tutors that we were worthy level 2 cricket coaches.
Three hours later it was all over and everybody was ‘bowled over’ to learn that they had passed. It was a tough course and everyone should be delighted with their attitude and application over the six weeks of the course and the final assessment.
We now look forward to our new Level 2 coaches sharing their knowledge with young local cricketers to help develop their cricketing skills and techniques in the summer term.
Thanks to Mr Brew for allowing this course to be transferred to Trinity Academy after the Campsmount fire threatened its cancellation.
Thanks also to the ECB tutors for their excellent tuition throughout and to all the children who helped us on the day - they thoroughly deserved their certificate of attendance.
And finally, many thanks to Liz Appleyard of Extended Services, whose funding paid for a Trinity Academy pupil to attend this course.
