Junior Coaching Programmes at Sandycove

• Age Groups:

  Coaching programs generally cater to children from age 5 up to 18. 
• Levels:

  Programs accommodate all levels, from beginners to those with more advanced skills, sometimes utilizing different colored balls (red, orange, green) to adjust court size and ball bounce for different age groups. 
• Structure:

  Coaching often follows a structured approach, with terms aligning with school terms (e.g., 12-week terms). 
• Membership:

  Many clubs require junior players to be members to participate in coaching programs. 
• Coaching Philosophy:

  Programmes often emphasise a fun and technically sound introduction to the game, focusing on developing fundamental movement skills, coordination, and basic tactics and technique. 
• Advanced Options:

  At Sandycove we offer squad sessions for older, more advanced players, providing more intensive training.
