Description
Sport brings people together and helps build strong communities. Volunteers will work with the organization in all areas of training, from setting up drills and fitness sessions to coaching sports teams. This project is a great opportunity for you to improve your skills and abilities while helping local children develop their talents. A local coach will support you when needed. Most of the time you will be training on the beach.
Your tasks:
As a volunteer, you will support both the sports lessons at a local school and take over training sessions in the afternoon. In the afternoon, the training sessions on the open soccer pitch are within walking distance of your accommodation. Here you have the opportunity to prepare and lead the lessons independently.
