Volunteering: Gifted & Talented Workshops (Weds 23rd October)

Volunteers are sought to help with running a range of sports science workshops next Wednesday (23rd Oct). Help is particularly needed in the areas of biomechanics and physiology. Sessions will run from 10:30 to 3:30 (with a lunch break between 12:15 and 1:00), and you would be given all the necessary instruction for the activities.

It will be an interesting opportunity to work with 10-11 year olds who have been identified as highly talented by their schools/regions.

You will also be able to use these hours to fulfill any module-related requirements related to voluntary placements (eg in Employability, RM1 or ISS).

If you would be interested in helping then please contact Danny Taylor at dtaylor@lincoln.ac.uk by Tuesday morning, to confirm your involvement or ask any questions you might have. Thanks!

Hi everyone! We will have a short group meeting at 7pm on Tuesday 22nd October in the Coaching Suite (after Liam Sander’s talk). We will provide an update on some of the activities people have already started, and a discussion of future events and officer elections.

We have already some offers of help in running the society – thank you for those! – but would have space for a couple more people to assist. Please email us at impresslincoln@gmail.com if you would like to become involved (or would like to know more about the positions available).

Everyone is welcome to the meeting. Please spread the word!
