MKX Coaches Appointed
MKX has appointed two experienced and talented coaches to work on this year's youth korfball development programme.
Andy Davies will be returning and will be joined by Loes Versteegh and will: work in schools, delivering korfball lessons in PE alongside teaching staff; after school supporting school teams; and in the out of school clubs with the U16s on Mondays at Shenley Leisure Centre and Wednesdays with the U13s, U11s and U9s at Shenley Brook End School.
MKX Set To Appoint Full Time Coaches
MKX will be appointing 3 new coaches for the 2010/11 academic year to provide high quality korfball coaching in schools and after school clubs.
The appointments will be confirmed by the end of August. If your school or youth club would like to book a coach then please do get in touch via email or call Darren on 07949411502.
Coaches are available to run single sessions, run a full morning or afternoon or a full day as a one off or for a full term.
Korfball is the ideal sport for schools as it is mixed-sex, easy to learn and great for health and fitness.
MKX: the Future
Thanks to a sizeable grant of the National Hockey Foundation and the support of the Milton Keynes Community Foundation, youth korfball in MK is set to take huge steps forward.
Starting in April 2010 we will be delivering a 3 year programme through MKX to train teachers and voulnteers in schools to be able to deliver korfball in the curriculum and at after school clubs.
We are currently working on a new Vision for youth korfball in MK and a Blueprint (what youth korfball will look like in 3 years) and we will then outline the steps to get us there. We will publish these shortly but initial thoughts will see korfball on the curriculum of most secondary and primary schools, that this will support and enthuse young people to join a number of after and out of school clubs, that coaching standards will rise considerably and our teams compete in a local youth league and perform well at national level.
Korfball is a great sport. It will only go forward if we invest in young people, give them opportunities to compete and most importantly to have fun in a safe and developmental environment. This is what we will be doing with MKX.
If you want to be part of MKX as a player, a parent-helper, a coach or a volunteer - please do get in touch.
Best wishes DARREN Chair of MK City Director of MKX
