Squash Ireland is inviting club members across the country to take part in an eight-week online Volunteer Development Programme in collaboration with Badminton Ireland and Table Tennis Ireland.
The initiative is a multi-week programme designed to create a learning environment where volunteers can grow their skills, confidence and leadership through a range of engaging and accessible sessions.
This free-of-charge programme is aimed at chairpersons, secretaries, treasurers, safeguarding officers, other club or committee members who are new to their roles, and anyone interested in taking on a volunteer role in the future.
The goal of the programme is to help people develop in their volunteer positions, which will improve the overall administration and experience of squash across Ireland.
Starting on October 16th, the programme’s focus areas include club leadership and governance, personal development, coaching, volunteering, diversity and inclusion.
Programme tutors include Stuart Garland of Volunteer Ireland, Blue Sky Training, Active Disability Ireland, ShoutOut, Dr Ciara Losty of SETU Waterford, DCM Learning, Dr Lee-Ann Sharp of UUJ and Dr Amanda Ni Gabhainn.
