October Lacrosse Camp 2024 – Fundamentals of Coaching Lacrosse

Level 1
Fundamentals of Coaching Lacrosse (16+) & Assistant Lacrosse Coach
August 11th-15th or 18th-22nd

The Fundamentals of Coaching Lacrosse is an England Lacrosse certified, one day, practical course and introduces participants to the role of a coach. The course is designed to teach the basic principles and theory behind coaching and educate on how to set up a safe, fun and engaging coaching session. There will be the opportunity to have a go at coaching and learn from peers and instructors. As well as the practical elements, participants will be expected to utilise online resources. This qualification allows participants to coach lacrosse alongside a more experienced coach.
While doing this course with us, we will also be delivering the further Chiswick Lacrosse certification of Assistant Lacrosse Coach within the price. This includes frequent individual mentoring and feedback sessions across the week, which will consolidate learning, provide opportunity to practice coaching and end with an assessment. Participants will then be able to coach small groups independently, though still under the direction and supervision of a more experienced lead coach.
We provide the training, mentoring, necessary experience and assessment day all within one week, enabling you to complete the qualifications within this short time frame. Following successful completion of the award there may also be opportunity for employment with us during subsequent weeks.

Initial theory session, mentored coaching across a range of age groups
