The Motor Activities Training Program is getting a boost with multiple new videos available to assist volunteers and coaches in how to train and help athletes in the specific skill areas of Balance and Kicking. 

These feature step-by-step walkthroughs, and are part of a series of videos covering important aspects of MATP techniques such as Boccia, Throwing, Dexterity and more. 

You can access them at our MAT website page here: Motor Activities Training Program | Special Olympics Ireland or in our YouTube playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiJ4leBUG9u7qOyF_bURc9_GNnDVx96Ic
