Why do we have Sports Captains?
Sports Captains support active sessions during lunchtime to engage children within different types of sports. They help with assemblies, gather pupils' views about sports clubs and review how we can improve participation in clubs. Sports Captains help to run activities for our annual Sports Day.
The Sports Captains
This pupil leadership group comprises of between 6 and 8 Primary 7 pupils. Sports Captains are pupils who are asked to sign up and are selected depending on their qualities. Sports Captains are pupils who show great leadership qualities, are confident and have a strong interest in sports.
The Benefits of Being a Sports Captain
- It encourages young people to take responsibility and develop leadership skills
- It also continues to develop skills such as organisation, communication, confidence and self esteem alongside planning and reviewing activities.
