Irish Fa & Mcdonald's Coaching Masterclass

The Irish FA and McDonalds are pleased to announce a FREE Coach education masterclass focusing on strength and conditioning for young players.

Theoretical and practical examples will give valuable information on:

* The impact S&C can have for player development

* S&C to prevent injuries

* Demands of the Game and implications for S&C
