DAN NORTON-SMITH COACHING CLINIC

in Surf Sports by Lizzy

The Weekend of the 4th and 5th February – Coach, Dan Norton-Smith made a trip down from the Gold Coast to work with our youth competitors and assist our coaches in future planning.

Dan’s visit was funded by the John and Marge Mills Coaching Bursary.

Eighteen keen participants worked with Dan over the weekend to hone their coaching skills. Dan took our youth through water and land sessions introducing topics such as loading and unloading athletes, training schedules and the importance of one percenters (Stretching and sleeping).

Dan acknowledged our youth group has much potential and he is looking forward to staying connected and helping in the future.

Prior to our competitors attending Aussies, Dan has also assisted with planning some water sessions for training.

We thank Dan for his time and the way he worked with our youth. He spent time away from his own family to come and work for us.
