The fourth Shropshire Coaches Conference will take place on September 12 at Priory School, Shrewsbury.

Some of the best tutors in the country will be running workshops in hockey goalkeeping, fast break basketball, progressing to the full game of tennis, managing contact in rugby and a women-only football workshop.

At lunchtime the presentation of the Shropshire Sports Partnership 'Coach of the Year' and 'Individual Contribution to Sport' Awards will be made, hopefully by an Olympic celebrity.

Lisa Charles, event co-ordinator, said: "The response we have had to the previous three conferences has been tremendous as the coaches from across the County seem to appreciate the opportunity to come together under one roof to share ideas and learn from some of the best coaches in the country. Already the response to this years conference has been overwhelming with over 90 coaches having registered for the wide range of workshops. We have the support of six National Governing Bodies of sport who will be running sports specific workshops and support from organisations such as Sport England an Sports Coach UK."
