Sports Coaching – Vocational Training

Duration

  • Short term groups: 2-3 weeks
  • Individual graduated students: 2-3 months

About the project

Tur Cos Ta Posibel provides short placements in Aruba for sports coaching vocational students. The placements can be sport-specific; for example, football coaching students will be engaged in football camps, football coaching in schools, and after-school and weekend club activities.

We can also offer opportunities to engage with specialist activities, such as sports for people with disabilities, over-50s activities, and sports programs in prisons or on military bases.

Students who are studying more general sports coaching will be offered a multisport provision, which could include activities with our local community partners in athletics, swimming, triathlon, and gymnastics, for example.

Our programs are individually tailored to the student’s educational journey and the curriculum they are studying. Students will be immersed in grassroots sports provision and will also have opportunities to volunteer at local sports events, such as road races, triathlons, or school sports programs.
