Target Setting

About the Workshop

Learners discuss the reasons behind setting a target before setting targets of their own for each of the different pieces of sports testing equipment, based on information given to them. 


Learners then rotate through the activities and complete a worksheet to support them in analysing their own performance. 


  • Sprint through timing gates 

  • Ball kick in radar inflatable goal 

  • Reaction time on a batak board 

  • Look at the power they can generate by using a rowing machine


Part way through the session learners are encouraged to ask for advice from their peers about how they could improve, this is linked to business mentorship.


Session finishes with a review of what they have learnt, covering the targets they set, if they were successful and how SMART targets are a useful tool in business.


This workshop also forms part of either an Aspire2Me day or an Enterprise Day
