Ulster GAA Coach and Volunteer Development Programme 2014
Over the months of October, November and December Ulster GAA run a programme of courses across the province aimed at improving the knowledge and skills of our coaches and volunteers. We have the full schedule of courses up on aodhruadh.org, and would invite all coaches and volunteers in the club to have a browse through it and see if there is any course or event they might be interested in doing or taking part in. Sub-committees are also asked to pro-actively engage with the programme and encourage their members to get involved. The better skilled and informed our coaches and volunteers are, the better our club will be.
