Winnipeg Region Fall Coaching Course - (Full)
2020-09-19 09:00 - 15:00
Winnipeg Region Clinics – Location: Sport for Life Centre, 145 Pacific Ave (Map)

Saturday, September 19th – Sorry, this class is full as Spring class was postponed to this class.

You must register for both Community Initiation and one of the Basic Bike Skills workshops.

Let’s Ride! Community Cycling- Initiation (CCI) is the NCCP context for coaches who will primarily work with novice, pre-competitive cyclists at the community level, including participants in the Active Start, FUNdamentals and early Learn to Train stages of athlete development. The program is simple, based on a number of pre-designed lesson plans, and adaptable to the varying skill and ability levels of participants. The focus of the program is on having participants develop skills which are basic to MTB, BMX, and Road, in a controlled, off-road, off-trail setting such as a sport field or parking lot.

CCI training has two parts – the “Let’s Ride!” CCI workshop, and a Basic Bicycling Skills workshop. The first workshop provides information on ethical coaching, participants and their needs, basic practice planning, equipment and other important information for coaches of beginner cyclists. The second workshop provides an opportunity for “on-bike” practice in skill teaching and analysis, practice coaching and use of provided lesson plans. The community initiation classroom course must be completed before you complete the Basic Bike Skills workshop. On completion, coaches have “Trained” status in NCCP. Read more…
