WELLINGTON COLLEGE SPORTS ACADEMY

Dear Parents, Guardians and Friends,
 
It is with great excitement that I announce the first ever “Wellington College Sports Academy” which is due to be held on site between 25th July and 4th August 2011.

The Academy courses will be led by a number of sporting celebrities alongside Wellington’s own high performance coaching team.

The Academy courses aim to be enjoyable first and foremost, but in addition hope to emphasize key principles required to foster and develop the most effective techniques and performance skills to elicit individual and team success. In this way the Academy aims to help performers to assemble a solid foundation that will support them ‘en-route’ to a variety of sporting destinations. These courses are designed to echo the pathways inherent in the Wellington College junior/senior playing and coaching programmes.

The Academy courses offer residential and non-residential places which will give some insight into the overall experience of boarding and day pupils currently at Wellington. For some delegates this experience may be as rewarding as the sporting tuition they receive.

Places are limited and will therefore be allocated on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. Please click this link for the brochure which gives further details. For booking information please email wellington@independentcoacheducation.co.uk. 

As the ‘Week Ahead’ will not be sent home this week I am writing to you now so that it will give you a chance to discuss this with your son/daughter during half term.

We look forward to seeing you on one of our specialist courses this summer. 

Kind regards,

Steve Shortland
Director of Sport
