After a successful 2019 campaign initiated by our Finnish colleagues, we would like to make 2020 global and look forward to hearing your experiences!
There are millions of coaches around the world, most of them working on a voluntary basis, and all of them having a big impact on our lives and societies. ICCE together with our Finnish partners have a challenge for you and your contacts.
As part of European Week of Sport 2020, there will be a day celebrating Sport Coaches on 25th September and once again, we are tasking people with thanking their coach.
When have you thanked your coach? What makes them special? How have you learned from your coach? How did they help you succeed? Please take this opportunity to thank and surprise your coach via social media using the hashtags #thankscoach #beactive
What can you do as an organization?
- You can create a promotional video in your own language (like the one below) featuring well-known athletes or players and/or their coaches
- Share your video and/or the English video (below) within your country
- Encourage individuals to thank their coaches on social media (video/photo or message using #thankscoach and #beactive)
- Share this message with your networks to help spread the word, using either the print or electronic version of the flyer (editable so you can translate into your own language, if you wish)
- Follow ICCE on social media and share our Coaches Day animations to help spread the word!
Here are two versions of the campaign YouTube videos to share:
