Kibworth Ladies Choir – Christmas Concert News!

Dear Editor

This month we’re taking a look at the introduction of the Coerver football coaching methodology at Kibworth Town from the perspective of a coach. Over the summer the club invested in becoming a Coerver partner club. This is a big deal as there is currently only one other partner club in Leicestershire. We decided to work with Coerver in order to give everyone at the club access to a comprehensive coaching programme. Its aim is to develop skilled, confident, creative players. Coerver have been around since 1984 and is used in 47 countries, at clubs such as Real Madrid and Manchester United and all the way through to grass roots level. The methodology places great emphasis on individual skill sets, mental and physical speed, and combination play - principles which are relevant to both boys and girls of all age groups and abilities.

Hurrah, hurrah, there was no ominous knock at our door on the evening of 31 October. We were well-prepared, my wife had earlier in the day purchased a packet of Swizzels 'Trick or Sweets'. All to no avail. Now we are left with Kojak type lollipops! Perhaps very young, primary school, members of our family might be interested or perhaps we will keep them hidden. After all the packet states that they are best eaten before 31 March 2023!

The Market Harborough Group of Macmillan Cancer Support is delighted that they can now re-launch the INFOPOINT that is sited at the Home Instead premises in Market Harborough.

Love or loathe Facebook, the global app does have a number of good qualities. One of my favourites is Facebook Memories – where it shows you photos you have shared in the past on the app. Always nice to get a visual reminder of a child’s birthday or a social event, or just something a bit more mundane.

The Kibworth Chronicle Association, the body that oversees the writing, collating printing and distribution of your Kibworth & District Chronicle held its AGM last Monday 4 October.

For those of you who exercise outdoors, be it running, cycling, winter sports such as rugby, even a walk, read on. This article about staying fit in cold weather is definitely for you! I know it is only October, but we have definitely had some temperature drops! Aren’t the colours gorgeous in our beautiful corner of the world this time of year?
