The TSS team hosted our first coaches & managers evening at St Matthews. It was an opportunity mix with sports volunteers and hear from Ryan from Back in Action and Anna from Wairarapa Sports Podiatry who provided their perspectives on how to support our we can best support our youth athletes. Ryan and Anna had some important messages about taking a rounded approach to raising healthy athletes to ensure that they maximise their enjoyment and minimise their injuries. For more information see their presentation here.
In addition Kloe from Nuku Ora came along to discuss the “balance is better” approach to kids sport, which reinforces Ryan and Anna’s perspectives and the Trinity Schools Sports Strategy.
