COACHES SET FOR MEDAL RECOGNITION – With 100 days until the start of the Championships, the organisers of the IAAF World Championships London 2017 have announced that for the first time ever at a World Championships, coaches of medal-winning athletes will also receive medals.
The medals, gifted to successful athletes once they return from their ceremony, will be for them to hand to their coach or significant advisor in recognition of the unique and valued working relationship between athlete and coach.
NEWS HEADLINE FOR THE EVENING STANDARD – In the 27 April edition they reported that Barnet Council last night approved the application (new £20m stand), with the improvement aimed at delivering “enhanced community, education and sporting facilities”. The stadium is also home to Shaftesbury Barnet Harriers athletic club.
VACANCIES AT LEE VALLEY ATHLETICS CENTRE – The Centre is looking for additional casual staff to take them through the summer and into next winter. The job involves setting up and down for events, coaching on kid’s sessions and cleaning, whilst in time those with the right abilities will get trained up to work on Reception as well. Rate of pay is £10.06 per hour.
They are looking for people with a passion for Athletics, a love of hard work and a keen interest in coaching children (preferably but not necessarily holding a minimum of an Athletics Assistant Coach award).
