Male and female teachers on Thursday last completed a three-day foundation cricket coaching course, compliments of the Ministry of Education’s Department of Culture, Youth and Sport in partnership with the National Sports Commission.
The workshop, which was held in the auditorium of the Lusignan Community Centre ground on the East Coast of Demerara, attracted 25 primary and secondary school teachers between the areas of Plaisance and Hope.
The course was conducted by experienced cricket coaches, Latchman Yadram and Daniel Richmond. According to Yadram, the course sought to give the teachers a foundation in the sport, as they were exposed to both theory and practical.
While the initiative is the first of its kind, there are plans to expand to other areas in the country with the aim of ensuring each school is equipped with a certified cricket coach.
“At the end of it all, these teachers will be in charge of their school team,” Yadram stated. He also indicated that the teachers are free to do follow-up courses in the future.
One of the teachers, Videsh Lall, who also plays competitive cricket for the Enterprise Busta Sports Club, said the course was very timely and informative. He pointed out that he will continue to pursue coaching and is urging his fellow colleagues to do the same.
