    A former South African netball team coach came to the Indoor Sports Centre in Joza last Thursday to show young netball players in the area – and their teachers – a thing or two.

    A former South African netball team coach came to the Indoor Sports Centre in Joza last Thursday to show young netball players in the area – and their teachers – a thing or two.

    Reg Sharp and his team hosted the U13 netball coaching clinic for players in the Albany area, as well as their coaches. He said the course was about “teaching the teacher”, with the kids being used to demonstrate activities.

    Each Albany school was invited to send coaches, as well as a certain number of players.

    Sharp and his wife Jennie (national premier league manager) ran the clinic, together with Proteas players Sameshia Esau and Mudi Mungenga, whom Sharp had spotted at similar coaching clinics before recruiting them

    Sharp said he normally focuses the clinics on clubs’ needs, and in this case it was for younger players.

    He focused on skills relevant to U13 players and tried to teach techniques that will build up skills they should know in order to progress into the next age category next year.

    Liz Farquar, secretary of Albany schools netball, said the coaching clinic was part of their development programme.

    They hold annual clinics for the young Albany netball teams, with various categories looked at throughout the year, Farquar said.

    During the clinic Sharp also pointed out promising players to their coaches, encouraging them to look out for talent.
