As clubs across Wales continue their return to training, our North Wales Club Development Manager, Eva Brewer, reflects on coaching at her own club - Prestatyn Juniors:
'Prestatyn Juniors were thrilled to get back to training following the Easter holidays, despite being one of the smallest clubs in the country we are able to bring athletics to the local community with 2 run sessions and an athletics session.
At the end of last year we were delighted to be awarded a Be Active grant from Sport Wales which helped us to purchase some medicine balls and mats so we could deliver training in the winter months and also some funds to help pay for the cost of hiring Prestatyn Cricket Club where we are based. This in turn helped the cricket club who have also found the last year challenging and have also recently returned to group training.
It's a pleasure to coach such a great group of children and give them this amazing opportunity, we look forward to being able to support them in local races and events as the sport continues to open up'.
