As you probably know, the new Competency
Based Education & Training (CBET) coaching program is replacing the NCCP coaching
program. This program will be replacing NCCP for all sports and lacrosse is one of the
first sports in Canada to be proceeding with this changeover.
If you are fully certified (Technical +
Practical + Theory) in the NCCP course and meet the requirements for the specific age
division then you have a 5-year grace period before you will be required to become
certified in the CBET program.
CANADIAN LACROSSE ASSOCIATION MINIMUM
COACHING STANDARDS – CBET/NCCP:
Enclosed, please find the minimum coaching
standards as developed by the Canadian Lacrosse Association for implementation by each
provincial association for the current season and beyond. The Saskatchewan Lacrosse
Association is requesting all member associations to abide by these minimum standards as
much as possible. Please be aware these minimum standards will be enforced at out of
province tournaments.
Please be reminded all teams are required to have at least
one individual as a Level 1 fully certified coach (NCCP or CBET) in that specific sector
on the bench for the provincial championships.
All teams are required to have at least one individual as a
Level 1 fully certified coach (NCCP or CBET) in that specific sector on the bench for the
provincial championships.
LEARNING FACILITATORS REQUIRED:
The Saskatchewan Lacrosse Association requires more box
lacrosse Learning Facilitators (Coach Course Instructors) to meet the demands of the
growing membership. We currently have Steve Michaluk of Moose Jaw and Dwight Harnish of
Saskatoon certified to instructor box Community Coach courses but require at least two
additional individuals to be brought into the program. The SLA will provide training and
arrange for the proper mentorship in bringing individuals to an appropriate level of
expertise. Please contact the SLA office if you are interested in receiving more
information.
Benefits to being a Learning Facilitator:
- Assist in the development of lacrosse in Saskatchewan
- Travel opportunities within Saskatchewan and throughout Canada
(last year – Dwight & Steve were trained in Vancouver)
- Provides a new challenge in this rewarding opportunity
- Money – the SLA values our coaching instructors and pays
accordingly
