You will also be supported in evolving your personal coaching development plan to enable you to take your learning into practice after the course. It is the first step towards becoming a qualified paddlesport coach within the BCAB system.
The sheltered water canoe / kayak coach is designed, to support you to coach paddlers who want to gain/improve their paddlesport skills. You will coach in canoe and/or kayak in the sheltered water environment. This will include coaching beginners new to the sport, or paddlers looking to develop their skills.
As a Coach you can work independently or you could be deployed by a club, centre or organisation. Being a Canoe and Kayak Coach allows you to design coaching to support your learners. You will be able to provide some Paddle UK Awards and Training once qualified.
