Who Am I?
My name is Gracjan Sen. I am a third year student of sports development and coaching at university of Lincoln. I have been provided with the opportunity to take part in 20h long placement working in a sport I have always had passion for. Moreover this placement enabled me to apply previous experience I have gained in coaching variety of different sports to a sport I love coaching and might coach in the later stages of my career. Hence it was something I looked forward to.
Outline of the Placement
The placement commenced at the end of January, my first ever session at the facility allowed me to assist the main coach, as well as get a brief idea of what to expect which would come useful in the planning process. Shadowing the main coach ensured a clear understanding if the group dealt with. The group consisted of players between the ages of 9-12 all beginners with minimal prior experiences in the sport.
