Minimum Requirements
Getting Started!
Each year the Regional Hub Network organises coaching courses, workshops and training days to offer professional development opportunities to new and existing coaches. If you are interested in coaching but are unsure which qualification you want to do first, here is a simple guide:
Level 1 – Assistant Coach – may assist a more qualified coach in the delivery of fencing sessions and/or deliver without direct supervision, pre-planned/prepared fencing sessions for groups of absolute beginners.
Level 2 – Coach – can prepare, deliver and review fencing sessions for groups and individuals including fencers who have completed a beginners’ programme and who are now training/fencing regularly at a club.
Local Courses in your area!
If you would like to attend a course in your local area, simply check out the upcoming courses page on our website, if there isn’t a course scheduled then register your interest with your Regional Hub Lead Officer or email Charlie Miller at [email protected].
