Starting an O-Lifting club/Kids
Hi all. I coach CrossFit Kids at a local box and the owner is wanting to expand into O-Lifting. We will be hosting some exhibitions to generate some interest and I have volunteered to get a kids/juniors program rolling.
Basically I am looking for advice on how to "sell" Oly stuff to local kids, where to market and how to get them started.
I would also love to hear some more pointers on actually teaching the lifts to 10-12 year olds. I have tons of experience coaching kids in many different sports and have recently fallen in love with Olympic Lifting.
Thanks again to Glenn for the great phone call, and thanks in advance to all who offer suggestions.
