While applications are being reviewed in advance of this winter's Provincial Games in North Bay, let's all keep in mind the expected level of certification our coaches need in order to coach at Provincial Games. Remember: Special Olympics + Theory + Ethics = Provincials. There are a few courses currently available to register for this fall.
-> Keep an eye on the Special Olympics course calendar at http://events.specialolympicsontario.com/index.php/registration/coaching-courses.
-> The calendar for multi-sport Introduction to Coaching A modules (Planning a Practice, Nutrition, Ethics) may be found at http://coachesontario.ca/nccp-training/course-calendar/.
-> Requirements for coaching at various Games may be found at http://info.specialolympicsontario.ca/programs-policies-procedures/10-0---coaching-1/10-3-0---orientation-training/10-3-2---certification-requirements-for-higher-competition.
If you are interested in applying for Spring Provincials 2016, take a course now so you're not rushing at the last minute!
