Sport

Growing coaches is a leadership programme for secondary school students who want to coach sport at schools (secondary, primary, intermediate) or clubs. At Kaikorai Valley College we offer the Growing Coaches Programme as part of our Year 12 Activities Programme.
Programme
The programme consists of eight hours of learning about coaching, including sport-specific and self-directed learning from a chosen sport, and Fifteen hours of coaching experience – coaching other young people.
We work with our Contributing Primary schools on Tuesday afternoons to provide specific Sport Coaching, organising lunchtime games and general movement skills. We have been working with Balaclava, Bradford, Concord, Halfway Bush and Mornington schools over the last five years. Our students also work with our Year 7 & 8 students and many coach Kaikorai Valley Sports teams.
The Growing Coaches Programme teaches valuable leadership and organisational skills, improves the ability of our students to communicate with younger students and adults. It also enables them to become involved in helping out the School by using their coaching knowledge and experiences to help our younger students achieve their sporting potential. Many of our student leaders have developed their skills by participating in the Growing Coaches Programme.
Students receive a Sport New Zealand qualification after successfully completing the Programme which is a valuable addition for their CV’s. A Level 2 NCEA assessment can also be completed using the experience and theory learned through the Growing Coaches Programme.
A recent development that has evolved from the Growing Coaches Programme is the involvement of these students in helping coach and run our very successful Sports Expos. Over 900 students are involved in the Expo where they get to experience eight of the thirty four activities offered. The Growing Coaches students get to work alongside experienced coaches and sports development officers, gain experience and help set up the Expo equipment.
Over the past two years we have also worked with Sport Otago who have developed their own Coaching Programme called ‘Coaches in Schools’. We offer this alongside the Growing Coaches Programme. Sport Otago provide a facilitator for the practical coaching instruction sessions and have also developed on-line learning modules that our students complete. This has been a very positive development for our students and has led to a more in depth understanding of the theory of Coaching and development of a personal coaching philosophy.
