Para sports focus of coaching webinar series
Goal ball, para-swimming, wheelchair basketball, para-athletics, and para-table tennis will be the focus of the Philippine Sports Commission–Pilipinas Para Games (PPG) Para Sports Coaching Webinar series starting on Saturday.
The six-day coaching program, done in partnership with the Philippine Paralympic Committee (PPC), will have long-time coaches and expert practitioners imparting fundamental coaching and experiences in the aforementioned para sport disciplines.
“After the PSC’s successful webinar on para-athlete sensitivity, this coaching program will complement and boost the knowledge of our coaches and trainers in para sports,” said PSC Oversight Commissioner for para-athletes Arnold Agustin.
Coaching webinar for wheelchair basketball starts on Oct. 9, followed by goal ball on Oct. 11, para-swimming on Oct. 12, para-athletics on Oct. 14, and para table tennis on Oct. 15.
The PSC said it is expecting five hundred participants for the webinar series.
“Participants who will be able to complete the webinar series will be awarded a certificate and commemorative event shirts,” Mr. Agustin said.
