You may already coach at the community level or you’re thinking about coaching. Often, you’re a parent whose child is involved in sport, or a volunteer who works with participants of all ages that are new to a sport.

Individuals interested in becoming involved in their club’s junior program can greatly benefit from this course (supervisors, parents, volunteers, etc.).

Coaches who take this one day workshop (7 hours) will become a Trained Youth Club Coach. This coach will be able to coach beginning curlers and youth curlers whom have been involved in curling for several years. A Youth Club Coach will be an expert in preparing a safe environment, ethical decision – making, and leading curlers in activities which are age suitable and technically correct for youth curlers. A Youth Club Coach will exemplify correct coaching behaviour.

Topics Covered in a Club Coach Youth workshop:

• setting the scene
• ethical coaching
• practice planning
• safety
• game orientation
• teaching the skills
• program management
• games, skills and activities

Duration of workshop: one day of 7 hours

Cost: $150 + tax = $172.46 (Curling Canada’s certification fees included)

Note : the workshop must be paid BEFORE it occurs. If not, 25$ per participant will be added to the registration fees that have to be paid within 30 days after the workshop for it to be recognized and approved by Curling Québec.

 

The course is offered on demand in any region of Quebec, according to our trainer’s availabilities and as long as we can have access to an ice sheet a full day.
