A series of workshops designed to help sports coaches engage with sporting talent on the Island will launch in later this year.

The workshops will form the Sports Coaching Festival at the National Sports Centre on Friday, September 7, and Saturday, September 8.

These workshops - two of which are new to the Isle of Man - will be conducted by UK coaching tutor Kam Raval.

Coaching Co-ordinator with IOM Sport, Trevor Christian, is calling the festival a 'great opportunity' for coaches across the Island.
