In a bid to enhance sports education across schools and sports institutions in Kenya, PIPSSA Kenya will host a pivotal workshop designed specifically for sports teachers, coaches, and educators. Scheduled for Saturday, 7th September 2024, at the YMCA Central in Nairobi, the event aims to upskill sports professionals, particularly those involved in Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) and international school systems.

The workshop is set to cover a range of critical topics including Institutional Sports Marketing & Coaching, Sports Event Management, and Governance & Ethics. With sports increasingly becoming a focal point in holistic education, this workshop promises to be a game-changer in equipping educators, coaches and teachers with the tools necessary to implement thriving sports programs.

While speaking to Kenya Swimming TV, Mark Gaya, the course coordinator, emphasized the significance of this workshop for educators. “This course is crucial not only for sports teachers but also for those involved in CBC and international curriculums. It’s about offering them the knowledge and strategies they need to elevate sports education in schools, making it more impactful and engaging for students,” he remarked.

The course facilitators include notable figures such as Anthony Muriithi, a seasoned swimming educator and trainer, and Glory Muthoni, a renowned sports lawyer, among others. Their wealth of experience will undoubtedly offer attendees invaluable insights into both the practical and regulatory aspects of sports education.

For a modest fee of Ksh. 2,000, participants will be treated to expert-led sessions that will sharpen their skills in sports marketing, event management, and legal frameworks, all tailored for a school setting. The event will also provide a unique networking opportunity, connecting educators from diverse institutions with a shared goal of fostering a strong sports culture in schools.

Coaches, educators, and institutions are strongly encouraged to enroll in this transformative course, which promises not just theoretical knowledge, but practical, immediately applicable strategies. To confirm attendance, interested parties are urged to RSVP by 5th September 2024.
