Volunteer opportunities in an Athletic Center in Greece
Volunteer opportunities in an Athletic Center in Greece
EVS volunteer will provide additional support to the educational staff team, which includes qualified and trainee teaching staff and activity instructors- such as basketball trainer, volleyball trainer, mini-soccer trainer, tennis trainer and a secretary – as well as the volunteer will be involved extensively with the groups who visit the centre.
The centre has been successfully running for four years with the departments of basket, volley, mini soccer and tennis.
The centre staffs welcome the opportunity to support international
volunteers at the centre as a way of broadening the horizons of their
work as well as of the local community and the members.
Our main aims are the introduction of new activities taken by the volunteers for the daily life of the centre, the promotion and contact with new cultures, especially from the volunteer origin. We believe that international education should serve intercultural understanding and cooperation providing strategies for meeting each child’s individual needs through sport and to deliver a well balanced international curriculum which is being continually developed and improved in harmony with the cultural beliefs of the host country and multicultural community.
We would like also to develop the volunteer’s responsibility, creativity, knowledge, and skills. She/He will also gain more self-esteem and compassion through creative work.
