Coach Sports Abroad: Coach Rugby in Ghana

Rugby in Ghana Rugby is an emerging sport in Ghana, with many Ghanaians now discovering its attractions. But up until now, it is a sport which has barely penetrated Africa, other than in the far south of the continent.

Volunteer Rugby Coaching with Projects Abroad

Volunteers in Ghana will have the chance to coach rugby in schools in and around Cape Coast. We are working alongside George Avoola Ladipo, the coach of the Junior National Rugby team, to help develop the sport in all of the Cape Coast Region. George is a qualified coach who is eager to pass on some of his coaching skills and experience to willing volunteers who want to help him bring Rugby to Ghana.

Practices at the rugby placements can sometimes have as many as 50 children, so any help volunteers in Ghana can provide George is very welcome. Even if volunteers assist simply with setting up drills and general organization, it will give George the opportunity to focus more on the individual aspects of the game. Once you become more confident you can get more involved in the sports coaching side of things, and even lead sessions if you wish.

Volunteering Abroad on a Rugby Team in Ghana

Coach rugby in Ghana Volunteer coaches working on our rugby project in Ghana will shadow George on a daily basis, helping with all elements of coaching within a selection of schools in the area. You will help with fitness training, ball work, skills sessions and explaining the rules to children who are much more familiar with soccer! You also assist with the organization of rugby games between the various schools, and help with the development of a league system.

This is a great opportunity for anyone passionate about rugby to get involved in its development in a country where it is in its infancy. You will be able to pass your enthusiasm for Rugby on to a new generation of youngsters and - who knows – in a few years time you may even find that you have been coaching members of the first national Ghanaian Rugby team!

상기 프로젝트는 한달 이내 참가가 가능한 프로그램입니다. 한달 이내 프로그램은 자원봉사자나 지역사회 모두에게 짧은 기간이지만 적합한 활동으로 현지 스텝들이 판단한 프로그램입니다. 다만 짧은 기간 참여를 통해 지역사회에서 열정적으로 활동하면서 가치있는 문화적 식견을 얻을 수 있긴 하지만 긴 기간동안 자원봉사 활동에 참여하는 친구들과 지역사회에 똑같은 영향을 줄 수는 없다는 점은 고려하세요.
