Pay: £10 per hour Programme Background Jump2it is a Scottish Sports Futures programme which uses the sport of basketball to give young people the information they require to make positive lifestyle decisions. These messages are delivered to primary school children throughout Scotland by various professional athletes and role models, primarily the Glasgow Rocks Pro Basketball Players. Each school will receive 6 weeks of basketball coaching to develop fundamental skills in the run up to a regional tournament. These sessions focus on enjoyment, basic basketball skills and incorporates key lifestyle messages throughout the programme. Coaches will also have the opportunity to work at large inter-school tournaments in which they can assist in a variety of different job roles including the planning and delivery of regional tournaments. In addition to our school programme, coaches will also have the opportunity to work at our Rocks Community Clubs (RCC) throughout Glasgow. These are usually in the form of an afterschool club run during the school year and provide children in the community the opportunity to form their own club with pupils from other schools in the area. Children are also given the opportunity to take part in monthly competitions against other RCCs in the area. This is used as a pathway for players to continue in the sport both competitively and recreationally and also as a link to other clubs supporting the growth of basketball throughout Scotland.
