The Sport England outcomes
for the England Excel Intervention are to ensure that players
are developed technically, nurtured and then transferred successfully
to the Great Britain programme.
To accomplish this, in
addition to our England Core Programme initiatives, we need to
increase the quality contact time on a week to week basis, with
players identified for the England Talent Development programme.
It has been determined the best way to achieve this is by empowering
our coaching network through progressive coach development around
technical benchmarks, improving coaching behaviours and financial
support.
To do this we have created
the concept of the ‘ExCell’ programme, which aims to help players
excel in the sport through the work of each performance cell.
We have two areas to pilot the programme, the first of which is
in the North West and the second in the Midlands
The North West ExCell
will start on Wednesday 9th December at: Wigan Judo Club ,
Woodford Street, Pemberton, Wigan, WN5 8AY. Tel: 01942 212705.
All England squad players
based in the North West will be involved with a Technical session
7-8pm, followed by an open randori session (8.00 – 9.30pm) for
all Performance players in the area and indeed the country!
England players will
be briefed at their England Area session on Wednesday 2nd December
in Kendal about how the following 8-week pilot will work and be
reviewed.
The England Core staff
Jamie Johnson, Matthew Divall, Nigel Donohue and Trevor Sitlinton
will be present for the first session, Nigel Donohue will lead
the initial training sessions.
More information on the
Midlands will follow shortly, but for the diary- start date 6th
January 2010.
