FREE NCCP Introduction to Community Coaching Workshops
Between November 20, 2020, and January 15, 2021, Nordiq Canada is offering the online Introduction to Community Coaching module for FREE to members.
Although COVID-19 has presented major challenges for sport and activities, being an outdoor sport that can be practiced with physical distancing has positioned cross-country skiing for the strong growth it has seen thus far this fall. This support is aimed at helping Canadian cross country ski clubs meet the increased demand for safe delivery of ski programming during the pandemic and beyond by increasing the number of qualified coaches across the country.
By increasing the number of coaches available to support the safe delivery of cross country ski programming in clubs across the country, the sport can more easily accommodate smaller group sizes and alleviate large gatherings of participants within training groups and lessons. This also offers a complementary pathway to athletes who may not be able to race as much as they might wish, and keep them engaged in the propagation of a healthy ski culture;
How it Works:
Attached is a Step by Step guide to help new coaches create a Locker account and get info on how to access the online modules.
Participants will still need to complete the multisport Coach Initiation in Sport online module first at the cost of $15.
The cross-country ski specific NCCP Introduction to Community Coaching online workshop fee will be waived in the Locker from November 20 to end-of-day January 15, 2021.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
