Development Coach Module - Christchurch

Development Module

The Development Coach Module is a 1-day workshop looking specifically at components around providing for a development rower.

Coaches working with development athletes are expected to have completed the Boat Safety Certificate. The New Coach Award is not a pre-requisite for this module but it is beneficial if coaches have a form of prior learning and coaching experience.

The course will cover three main topic areas:

1.The coaching process looking at athlete-centered coaching skill

2.Sports science focusing on strength and conditioning needs, training programs and periodisation

3.Technique and how athletes acquire the skill.

Follow up:

Coaches on this course will also be invited to attend a follow-up course at a time determined by the facilitator and coaches at the time of the course. This follow-up will take approximately 1 hour and is a chance to re-group, ask questions, discuss issues, and go deeper into some topic areas covered off earlier.

Once the workshop has been completed the coach will have access to the extension modules.

• Development workshop 9am - 5pm (1 hour lunch break)
• Follow up workshop 1 hour

Approximate total time: 7 hours

Cost: $75
