www.cricketcoach.info - ECB Coach Development Workshops

Coach Development Workshops:-

The primary target audience for the new Coach Development Workshops are coaches who have attended the new UKCC2 course. These workshops are designed to act as “stepping stones” for individuals who wish to work towards attending either the UKCC3 course or the Club Coach Course.

Coaches can also access these as CPD (Continual Professional Development). A certificate of attendance will be issued for each workshop attended.

These workshops will include content similar to the previous ECB Level II course but new developments have meant that we can include some updated information that we feel is valuable for coaches at this level.

These workshops will be three hours in duration.

I attended all six towards the end of 2007 - 30 November 30 and 2 / 9 / 17 December.

ECB Cricket Development Workshops - Coach Development Workshops (CDWs) are designed to give UKCC Level 2 coaches some more knowledge and skills based around specific aspects of the game. There are 6 CDWs on offer and once coaches have attended all 6 workshops they are eligible to apply for the UKCC3.
