USMS Coach Certification Course (Levels 1 and 2) at the ASCA World Clinic
We are genuinely excited to announce the unveiling of the USMS and ASCA Masters Coach Certification Program (Levels 1 and 2) at the 2010 ASCA World Clinic. Masters Coaches Certification will be taught on Monday, August 30 and Tuesday, August 31. You may register at www.swimmingcoach.org/.../. Please note that you do not have to register for the entire World Clinic to take this course, nor must you be an ASCA member to participate.
The Coaches Committee has made development and teaching of the Masters Coaches certification program a top priority. Level 1 and 2 certification will cover presentation and discussion of topics affecting today's Masters coaches. Topics include the development of your Masters coaching philosophy; dryland training; understanding special populations; working with triathletes and open water swimmers; and the teaching of starts, turns, and the four strokes.
USMS has and will continue to invest in educational opportunities for coaches and clubs. The Coaches Committee is proud to present this course in conjunction with Club and Coach Services, and looks forward to seeing as many coaches as possible in Indianapolis!
It's great to see the Masters Certification course at ASCA again. It used to be a regular occurence at ASCA and at USMS Nationals. Here's hoping we keep moving in a positive direction for coaches. One thing ASCA could do to draw more Masters Coaches to the World Clinic is to have a relevant Masters Track every year. Sad to see only one topic on the list related to Masters, and it's on how to fund your age group program by running a masters team.
