Cork GAA are delighted to announce that this summer from June 28th to July 2nd they will host the inaugural SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh “Performance Camp” for Hurlers and Footballers born in 2006 and 2007.
The primary goal of this fun based training camp is to expose the players to age appropriate “best practice” coaching across the four big pillars of performance including Hurling and Football Skills, Athletic Development, Performance Psychology and Health and Lifestyle Skills.
The Camp will have a particular focus on developing the core attacking and defending skills across Football and Hurling as well as speed, agility and power from an Athletic Development perspective. Performance Psychology Skills will concentrate on Leadership, Teamwork, Confidence and Emotional Control. While education on Recovery techniques, Sleep, Nutrition and Time Management will be central to the Health and Lifestyle aspect of the camp.
This fun based developmental training camp is designed by Aidan O’Connell, the High Performance Manager with Cork GAA, and will be delivered by expert Coaches and Practitioners who work across the various Intercounty Teams and Rebel Òg Squads.
Speaking at the launch of the SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh Performance Camp, Aidan O’Connell said
“I’m delighted to be launching the SuperValu Páirc Uí Chaoimh “Performance Camp” for our younger players. This fun training camp will provide an exciting opportunity for these 14 and 15-year-old players to learn and develop the core performance skills that will add value to their development both on and off the pitch. Fortunately, we can draw from our various Intercounty set ups a selection of High Performance Coaches and Practitioners that will provided high quality coaching across the technical skills of the game, athletic development, performance psychology and health and lifestyle skills. We are excited to provide these committed young players with a unique experience that will help them on the road to optimising their potential”
