๐ A Little Reintroductionโฆ
With so many new followers joining our page recently, I thought it was the perfect time to say hello and reintroduce myself!
Iโm Coach Sarah, the proud owner of Mini Athletics Newry, Armagh & Banbridge. ๐
By day, Iโm a Primary School Teacher, and in the evenings and at weekends, youโll find me doing what I love mostโcoaching our amazing little athletes!
Iโm passionate about helping children build confidence, develop their fundamental movement skills and discover a love of being active through fun, engaging sessions. At Mini Athletics, every class is packed with running, jumping, throwing, games, imagination and lots of smiles!
One of my favourite parts of coaching is watching children grow in confidence each week. Seeing a child who was once a little shy leave class smiling, believing in themselves and excited to come back is what itโs all about. โค๏ธ
Whether youโve been with us from the very beginning or youโve only just discovered our page, thank you so much for being here and supporting our little community. It really does mean the world.
If youโre looking for a fun, welcoming class where your child can learn new skills, make friends and burn off lots of energy, weโd love to welcome you to the Mini Athletics family!
