The Community Coaching Clinic is for those that are interested in learning the basics of coaching. In this course, you will learn about the ethics of coaching, what it takes to be a good coach and how to plan a practice. There is also a short practical section of the course to practice instructing throwing techniques and drills. This is a great way to get trained to start an ultimate team in your community or school, get the basic knowledge of what it takes to run a team, or great for mentors of teams that are just getting started. At the end of the course, you will receive the status of “trained” community coach for Ultimate through the National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) and Ultimate Canada.

It will be held mainly at the Vancouver Curling Club with a short walk to a park nearby for an ‘on field’ portion in the afternoon. Please dress accordingly.
