THE much awaited international training course which was scheduled for December 3 to 5 has been moved to December 7 to 12 at the same venue in the capital.

“The National Athletics Association of Zimbabwe would like to advise all the coaches who have applied and shown interest in attending the international course in Harare from 3 to 8 December 2023, that the course will now start on 7-12 December the changes has been necessitated by the need to have some basic requirements. 

“The changes in dates is due to basic requirements for all courses, by world new standards that there is an online component they must do before attending the physical component 

“The course will remain in Harare at the advertised venue and conditions are still the same. We are happy with the overwhelming response from coaches in and around Harare. 

Tagara said as NAAZ they are happy to be hosting such a big and beneficial programme in over a decade. 

“This is the first time in almost 10-years that the course will be run in Harare. We are happy with the response from private and independence schools as they host a germ of talented youngsters.
