As a basketball coach, you will often form the first lasting impression that participants and their families have with our game.
ā
Wagga Basketball relies on dedicated volunteers to teach people how to play the game and compete at a local and higher representative level. We recognise there is a need to support these volunteers with high quality, consistent, accessible training.
Coaching accreditation
You don't need any qualifications to coach at a local level. You just need a working with children check and an enthusiasm for coaching and contributing to player development.
ā
If you are looking at taking the next step in your coaching journey, below is an outline of the relevant accreditations required.
ā
Club Coach Accreditation (Formerly Level 1)
ā
Suited for domestic and representative grade coaches, the Club Coach Course is the most commonly delivered course throughout NSW.
It is typically viewed as the entry-level basketball coaching accreditation for any coach who is interested in investing time into improving their coaching skill set. This course is a minimum requirement to coach at junior representative level.
ā
Association Coach Accreditation (Formerly Level 2)
Suited for higher representative grade coaches (including Division 1, State Teams etc) the Association Coach Course is delivered 1-2 times a year in both metropolitan and regional NSW.
