Boccia Bletherin’ is set to become a calendar staple after an overwhelmingly successful inaugural event.
The workforce CPD and networking day, held in Perth’s fully-accessible Letham4All Community Hub, saw 25 coaches, officials, committee members, players, staff and supporters learn from each other and from experts in the sport.
The event was free of charge to attend and included informal, facilitated sessions featuring a number of topics identified as important by the attendees including: Officiating Update; Governance Hot Topics; Coaching BC3 Players; Lining and Timekeeping; Resource Development; Player Q&A and more! Of course, plenty of time was also set aside for catching up, networking and tucking into the delicious spread put on by the Letham4All catering team.
Feedback from the event was very supportive of the event, with all indicating that they would recommend that others attend. Topics identified for the next Boccia Bletherin’ include B3C practical work, sharing coaching practice and lining and timekeeping in practice.
