Sports coaching

The most popular sport on the planet and for good reason. Football is a very important skill for kids to have in their lockers. It also teaches valuable

life skills. Our sessions involve skills, drills, small games, challenges. Lots of fun. Teamwork is important but so is individual brilliance and creativity. If we unearth the next Lionel Messi in Witney that would be epic! Group and 1:1 sessions available.

Through my very good friends at Broken Boards I coach skateboarding to individuals and small groups. I specialise in coaching beginners but can also cover intermediate riders looking to develop beyond the beginner phase. I have ridden a skateboard for about forty years and it has taught me an awful lot of life skills (perseverance, tenacity, patience) along the way. A brilliant sport for anyone with ADHD, incidentally. 

Quite simply a brilliant sport for primary aged children. We work on the basics of dribbling, passing, and shooting but there’s so much coordination, balance and quick thinking involved too. Skills, drills, small games and challenges abound. Let’s get a child from West Oxfordshire into the NBA!  Watch this space. Seriously, basketball is an underrated sport in the UK and is brilliant fun.  

Coach Joe's multi-sports sessions focus on the key movements of throwing, jumping, running, connecting with a ball and also improve balance, hand-eye coordination, as well as promoting teamwork and sportsmanship. Games include  tag rugby, rounders, badminton, beanbag toss, athletics and cricket. Highly varied sessions designed to improve a range of core skills.

PE is a vital part of a child's education. Coach Joe's PE sessions for home school kids deliver the perfect blend of learning and fun and are a great way to interact with fellow home school-ers. 

Think Netball crossed with American Football but with a frisbee. Unique, immensely fun and challenging! There is a lot more to this game than simply throwing and catching a frisbee. Brilliant for everyone as a standalone game or to keep kids fit during off-season for their main sport(s). Come and give it a go!

The kids don't have to have all the fun. Here at Coach Joe's we are passionate about getting EVERYONE moving and playing. Why not? Used to be sporty and now struggling to find time or motivation? Join a Coach Joe's adult multi-sports group session and unleash your inner kid. It feels great! This is not uber-competitive, must win at all costs, high octane sport. No. This is come along in your comfy gear, pick up a basketball and shoot some hoops with the homies. Or play badminton like you just don't care. 

​

We all love playing with our kids and can do this whenever and wherever we like. So why would I join a Coach Joe's parent and child(ren) session and pay to play with my own kid(s) I hear you cry? Simples. I have all the gear, can help you remember how to play *insert sport here* if needs be, and help link you up with like-minded folk. Also, if you have ever joined in with a parents vs. kids game at your children's sports clubs you will know just how much they love seeing their mums and dads in action. Great fun for all.
