What is the best course for me?

Whether you are new to coaching or leading, want to start coaching your own group or want to try a new discipline, we have courses available to meet your needs. If you are just starting your journey on the coaching pathway, we recommend the following courses:

• Leading Athletics — While not a formal qualification, the Leading Athletics workshop is aimed at individuals who are interested in an introduction to the skills needed in leading athletics activities for young athletes.
• Coaching Assistant — The Coaching Assistant qualification is designed to introduce you to providing safe and enjoyable athletic experiences for young people aged 8+.
• Leadership in Running Fitness — The course is designed to prepare you to provide a safe and enjoyable running experience for young people aged 12+ and adults of any ability.

For those of you who are already a qualified coach or leader, the following courses are available:

• Athletics Coach — The Athletics Coach qualification has been designed to support coaches in working with athletes in the foundation to Event Group Development Stages and advocates a multi-event approach in the development of athletes.
• Coach in Running Fitness — This Award is the cornerstone of the off-track pathway and is designed for those who want to get involved in coaching runners, over the age of 12, who take part in non-track based activities.
• Event Group — The Event Group programme has been designed to provide licensed athletics coaches with a greater understanding and awareness of the issues involved in coaching athletes at the Event Group Development stage of the athlete development model (typically 14-18 years). This course is available for the following Event Groups: Sprints and Hurdles, Endurance, Jumps and Throws.

This really is a fantastic opportunity to get involved in coaching, either as a newly qualified coach or as a coach who is looking to progress along the pathway. Make sure you book between the 5-11 June to claim your 15% discount.
