Cork Sports Partnership have partnered with Sport Ireland Coaching to host an Online Physical Literacy Workshop which offers participants the chance to learn more about why physical activity is so important to children and how we can do more to encourage it.
Physical Literacy is at the forefront of the work that Sport Ireland does, as indicated in the All-Island Physical Literacy Consensus Statement (AIPLCS). It relates to an individual’s personal relationship with physical activity – how they think and feel about it and what they do.
The aim is for each person to ‘dig deeper’ into why they are active/inactive, understand their barriers and supports, examine what motivates them, and be on a path of being physically active that suits them. By developing their physical literacy, they can find ‘the switch’ that works for them, start to value physical activity in their lives, grow a love of being active and include it in their lives, every day.
Sport Ireland Coaching has developed a course to give participants the opportunity to develop their knowledge and understanding of physical literacy
This module is an interactive 2.5 hour workshop which will enable participants to:
- Outline the origins, definition, elements, relationship between the elements and importance of physical literacy.
- Explain whether individuals can be described as ‘physically literate’ and whether physical literacy can be assessed.
