Hockey Term 2 planner
Visie
Om ‘n omgewing te skep waar deelnemers hokkie kan geniet en kan sosialiseer met hul spanmaats en die wyer gemeenskap. Spelers ontwikkel ‘n passie en uitgebreide kennis van alle aspekte van die sport (individueel en spanvaardighede) en deursettingsvermoë om volgehoue sukses op hierdie vlak van sport te te behaal.
Doelwitte
- Voorsien gekwalifiseerde afrigting en ontwikkel individuele- en spanvaardighede.
- Skep geleenthede vir spelers om op streeks- en provinsiale vlak gekies te word.
- Ontwikkel leierseienskappe en mentorprogramme.
- Skep lang- en korttermyn doelwitte, spanwerk en gesonde kompetisie (sportmanskap, respek vir mekaar, kommunikasie, ensovoorts).
- Skep geleenthede waar terugvoering van die afrigter en spelers positief deurgegee kan word om optimale groei te verseker.
- Skep geleenthede waar afrigters meer ondervinding kan kry in die sport en hulself tot die beste van hul vermoëns kan verbeter.
- Ontwikkeling van toerusting en fondse vir afrigters en spelers, om afrigting en sukses te bevorder.
