As Community Development Administrator for London GAA it was my responsibility to sustain and promote underage Gaelic Games in London. My main aim was planning county games development strategy and implementation of county initiatives for schools and clubs while implementing practical programmes in coaching and games development as part of the continuous player development programme. I would promote coach and referee education (CARE). To do this I would tutor a number of Gaelic Football and Hurling Foundation and Level One Coaching Courses. I would also organize Referee Education courses and organize Child Protection Courses for all underage coaches. I was responsible for the coaches in over sixty-five schools across London coaching Gaelic Football, Hurling and Camogie. At the end of each half term I would organize a blitz for all the schools to attend. As Community Development Administrator I would assist all the clubs with coaching sessions and promote the school/club link. In an administrative basis I would organize the timetable of coaching and blitzes for each school year, organise Camps, submit time-sheets from my coaches and assist each club in finding funding sources from various sources including Sport England and the Borough Councils.During my time in London I had the opportunity to successfully use and develop all my academic qualifications in sports coaching, management, finance, marketing and education. I had the opportunity to fully use and develop my coaching and fitness experience and qualifications while gaining qualifications as a Coach and Referee Tutor.
