YOUNG LEADERS COURSE Dominic Hobdell is cracking on with organising a young leaders award. The dates he is looking at are over February half term – Thursday 26th and Friday 27th February 2009 at the NSC. We have Kim Carney tutoring the course. The young leaders award is 14 hours, covering coaching, umpiring, leading and managing and is aimed at those aged 13-18 years old. It is ideal in preparing people for management roles and those wishing to progress onto coaching and umpiring awards. The cost of the course is normally £30 per person, however MSR will be subsidising this by £10 per person, so candidates will have £20 to pay. The closing date of the course is Monday 26th January, so creeping up fairly close! Please contact Dominic for an application form here which needs to be returned as soon as possible (Dominic.Hobdell@gov.im)
