Do you mind telling me how you got certified? This is also my third year of coaching, but I haven't been able to find a dragonboat coach certification program...? Thanks! manda Title: Re: Coach Looking For A Team Post by: Colossus on January 17, 2008, 04:25:58 AM contact water's edge to see when they're putting on their next certification program. it might even be on their website.

You can take the National Coaching Certification Program They offer Theory and practical courses. These are great general courses on coaching theory. It is required for many organized sports... but somehow dragon boating in Vancouver has been slow to organize or formalize. Check out Coaching Association of BC http:www.coaches.bc.ca/nccp/schedule.html (http://http:www.coaches.bc.ca/nccp/schedule.html) Unfortunately dragon boating still isn't an official NCCP technical course - but both FCRCC and Ontario were developing technical courses. Water's Edge offers technical paddling workshops check out http://www.watersedgesportperformance.com/ (http://www.watersedgesportperformance.com/) They are offering two courses in February Dragon Boat Coaching Level 1 http://www.watersedgesportperformance.com/component/option,com_jcalpro/Itemid,97/extmode,view/extid,34/ (http://www.watersedgesportperformance.com/component/option,com_jcalpro/Itemid,97/extmode,view/extid,34/) Coach's Critical Eye Level 1 http://www.sporg.com/pom/registration?cmd=event_info&event_id=94002 (http://www.sporg.com/pom/registration?cmd=event_info&event_id=94002) Title: Re: Coach Looking For A Team Post by: skullskater69 on January 24, 2008, 08:18:57 PM Tristen is doing great!! He just turned one on January 10. I've decided to be a stay at home mom, hence the reason why I need a job coaching!!
Title: Re: Coach Looking For A Team Post by: mandachan on January 25, 2008, 04:19:18 AM Thanks a bunch, I just registered for coach's critical eye. Hope it'll help my team improve. Does it come with anything to prove I went through the course (certificate? card?) or is it more like I just say that I've gone through the course and people will believe me? hahaha...
Title: Re: Coach Looking For A Team Post by: skullskater69 on January 25, 2008, 04:05:05 PM In order to get your certification you need to take the Level 1 coaching course offered through Water's Edge. There are a number of tasks you need to complete before you can receive your certification. The coach's critical eye is a great training course that does more on the water training and a lot more "in depth" than the theory coarse of the Level 1 coaching course, however, it's the Level 1 course that will get you your certification.
