Mr Young said “The aim of the weekend is to raise the profile of Sports Coaching in Argyll and Bute, recruit more coaches and encourage existing coaches to improve their qualifications. We also wish to raise the standards and qualities of Sports Club management, and get more people in sport. Please help make this event a success by encouraging as many clubs, coaches, staff and volunteers to attend.”
A spokesperson for South Kintyre Sports Council said “We would encourage anyone with an interest in Sport to book up for this weekend. There are a range of courses with something to suit everyone. We had hoped to offer the new mini bus to those interested in attending but have just found out we will not take delivery of the bus until early March now. However, at our next meeting on January 28th we will hopefully offer some assistance to any of our members who wish to participate.”
