Neurodiversity Awareness in Sport

Get ready to discuss all things neurodiversity, exploring the many ways differences show up and how they impact experiences in sport.

Do you coach children and adults with Autism or ADHD, but you're not quite sure what that means?

Are you struggling to engage or support these individuals and want to tools to overcome these barriers together?

It can be difficult to understand, include and accomodate people who experience the world differently to you. This workshop will help you to understand what 'neurodiversity' means and how it shows up in sport. From uncovering the meaning behind the diagnoses, to understanding the stressors that cause day-to-day difficulty, you will leave this workshop with a deeper understanding of the complex neurodivergent experience.

The aim is to centre your coaching around acceptance and support, so that everybody can enjoy your sport and get the full benefits of your coaching sessions. Equally, understanding your players will help you tailor your sessions to their needs, so that you can watch them thrive and succeed.
