We did a training course for teachers in Aberdeen. Here is some of the feedback:

• “Excellent. Very worthwhile”
• “Innovative hands-on presentation”
• “Lots of fun”
• “Presenters made it easy to understand”
• “Useful for all age groups”
• “Full involvement of all participants”
• “Lots of Potential”
• “Additional core option”
• “Opportunity to offer greater flexibility in the curriculum”
• “Great for motivating girls”
• “Excellent for integration of disaffected children”
• “Plenty of practical ideas for many activities”

This one is from a school in England, not Scotland, but it gives you an idea of the quality of sessions:

<< I would like to wholeheartedly thank Paul and his colleagues for the VX taster session he led in Huntington School, York. I cannot remember seeing students enjoy a taster session as much as they did with Paul and his team. Every time I passed through the sports hall I saw students running around, working hard and HAVING FUN. We have already had an influx of students interested in taking up the sport, outside of school. I look forward to working more with this brilliant new sport and the dedicated individuals who are working so hard to develop it!
