Summary
The G and F courses are "introductions": elementary presentations for
first time coaches or those with little experience. Our intention in these two
courses is to help you to become a more resourceful and confident "activity
leader" - to combine your enthusiasm and commitment to children with the
basic theory and many practical exercises which we'll provide. (No Prerequisite)
The E course is for those who want to learn more about the techniques and tactics
of the game and more about leading experienced youth teams.(Prerequisite
- F
License)
There is no performance or written test involved in the G, F, or E courses. None
of the three courses is particularly rigorous physically; participation in the
practical, active sessions (about half of each course) is strongly encouraged
but not required.
