Dragon Sport group gets organised
Teachers, volunteers and club members have attended a Dragon
Sport organisers' course at Wenvoe Village Hall.
Led by Vale of Glamorgan Council Dragon Sport co-ordinator
Rachel McGuinness and assistant Peter Hardwick, the event features
sections on adapting games to suit different abilities in a group
situation and promoting ‘Chwarae Teg’ (Fair Play) aiming to
generate positive attitudes and improve standards of sporting
behaviour.
The course promotes a code of conduct for sports people and
highlights the importance of respect, staying calm and adopting
dignity, with a focus on enjoyment.
The Sports Council for Wales' Dragon Sport initiative is run in
conjunction with all Welsh local authorities and focuses on eight
sports - athletics, cricket, football, golf, hockey, netball,
rugby and tennis.
All candidates receive a certificate to mark their
attendance.
