LCVA Coaching Education Program

LCVA’s Coaching Education Program provides prospective coaches and outgoing volleyball players the opportunity to continue their education in co-curricular sports by taking it to the next level and learning the basics of coaching.  Available to Seniors from Central High School and beginning after the volleyball season ends, this program will provide basic knowledge of coaching in general, provide valuable tools to help coach and teach the sport of volleyball, and license students in Basic First Aid and CPR.  Once completed, the student will have completed the courses required by the WIAA to be a certified volleyball coach in the State of Wisconsin.

 

Classes will take place on Monday nights from 6pm-7:00pm at Central High School Room 232; class instruction will consist mainly of interactive activities, topic discussion and general review of topics for the week.  In conjunction with the live instruction, students will be completing 2 online courses offered through the National Federation of High School Sports:  ‘Fundamentals of Coaching’ and ‘Coaching Volleyball’.  The cost of these courses is$110.00; the student is expected to pay for these courses up front.  Students should bring either a check of $110.00 to the first class or bring a debit/credit card using which they can pay for the courses online.  As long as the student completes the course requirements (passing both online classes and successfully completing American Red Cross CPR/First Aid Training) they will receive a full reimbursement of $110.00 after the class is complete, making this training FREE.

 

PLEASE NOTE:  This course ends with a coaching experience in LCVA’s Middle School Spring Volleyball League which runs from 2/25-5/19.  Coaches who have taken and passed this course will receive preference when hiring or assigning coaches to league teams.
