Featured Events in Bray in March 2024 (Continuously Updated)

The Women in Sport Walk n Talk Bray Head is an exciting event taking place in Bray. Led by walking leader Lisa Redmond, participants will meet at the Bandstand Bray and embark on a memorable journey. This walk offers a stunning coastal view from Bray Head, with the opportunity to see the stone cross placed there in 1950 during the Holy Year. The panoramic vista from the top of Bray Head encompasses Bray, North East Wicklow, and Dublin Bay, as well as the neighboring mountains such as the Great and Little Sugar Loaf and Carrickgollogan. Walking is a simple and accessible form of exercise that provides numerous benefits for people of all ages and fitness levels. Not only does it have positive effects on mental health and well-being, but it also stimulates the release of endorphins, which are natural mood-boosting chemicals in the brain. This leads to reduced stress, improved mood, and increased feelings of happiness. Walking in nature or green spaces can further enhance these benefits by promoting relaxation, reducing anxiety, and enhancing mental clarity. We kindly request that participants only book events they genuinely intend to participate in, as no-shows and last-minute cancellations can impact planning and prevent others from seizing these valuable opportunities. By responsibly booking and promptly cancelling if necessary, participants actively contribute to our goal of empowering women in outdoor activities. Join us at the Women in Sport Walk n Talk Bray Head and experience the physical and mental benefits of walking in a beautiful setting. Book your spot now and be part of this empowering event. Admission is free.

In addition to the workshop, which is conducted by trained Coach Developers/Tutors, there are also valuable learning resources available for each coach.

Furthermore, the Let's Get Real tasks serve as a post-workshop support system, aiding coaches in transferring their learning to their practical coaching sessions with the girls they train, be it in a club, school, or community group setting.
