What You'll Do: 

Evolve Sports Academy is an alternative education sports coaching programme. Using sport as a tool, we deliver qualifications in Sport and Functional Skills to secondary school students who have been excluded / at risk of exclusion from school. Alongside delivering academic qualifications, we have a specific focus on developing young people with fundamental life skills. Our aim is to create an environment where each individual student can achieve their full potential.

 

Each Tuesday, we run a free community boxing session at Pallister Park Centre in Middlesbrough (5.00pm - 5.45pm). We are looking for volunteers to help support with the coaching and delivery of the sessions.
