Step Up in Coaching!

FREE Coach Development Programme - 2 Day Workshop:

Following on from the success of last year’s delivery, we are pleased to be able to offer additional dates for the ‘Step Up in Coaching programme’.

Delivering coaching techniques, session planning, ideas and support, the Step Up in Coaching programme includes a recognised qualification: Active IQ’s Level 2 Certificate in Delivering Health-Related Activity Sessions.

Suitable for adults aged 19+ with an interest/involvement in coaching grassroots through to elite football. 

This programme provides a great introduction for coaches thinking about progression from Level 1 to Level 2, as well as providing higher qualified coaches the opportunity to experience different formats, practices and concepts.

 

We have designed the programme to be delivered through football and to provide coaches with:

• New practice ideas; ways of structuring training sessions and games/activities.
• Tools to observe and develop individual players and teams.
• How to link training sessions with match days.
• Constructing a session plan and using the plan-do-review process.
• Supporting players' lifestyle module, including a diet & nutrition workshop.

We will provide 2 days of practical and theory workshops and also support coaches' needs based on examples/problems they may have encountered during the season.

All coaches attending the course will receive a portfolio for completion during the course with some preparation required between the sessions.

 

The course will be delivered by UEFA A Licensed FA Coach Educator Justin Merritt and UEFA A Licenced Coach Mark Jones.
