So, you’ve got a whole bunch of kids at your Club or Association who are jumping out of their skin to realise their inner Home Run Hero in a ‘Sidekicks’ program.

You’ve also filled in our HRH EOI Form, found dates and a location for the program, and even given your program a name.

But wait, you don’t have enough people to help run your HRH session! Oh no!!

Never fear, Softball Australia is here, with our face-to-face HRH coaching sessions.

Delivered by fully professional and qualified State participation staff, face-to-face coaching education sessions are available in ALL States and Territories, and teach new and current coaches how to successfully deliver a Home Run Heroes 'Sidekicks' program for your Association, Club, or School.

Sessions run for approximately 90 minutes, are 100% free, and fully qualify participants to run Home Run Hero programs.

Softball Victoria Participation Coordinator Dani Rigg said, “We recently ran a coaching education session with volunteers from Dandenong Softball Association and the Knox and District Softball Association. The session covered the basics of delivering HRH programs, and everyone had a great time when we introduced the HRH activities.

“The people there had a range of previous coaching knowledge, but regardless of background, the session gave everyone the confidence to deliver high-quality HRH programs. We also upskill Club and Association volunteers so they can recruit and train new coaches into the system.”
