Level 1 Coaching Course

The Level 1 Coaching Course is the introductory coaching course. It is the basic qualification for all people wanting to coach rowing or sculling.

The Level 1 Coaching Course gives you:

• Technical instruction on the standard rowing and sculling styles promoted by Rowing Australia. This will allow rowers and scullers you coach to more easily fit into crews in Australia, as well as being the world-leading technique.
• Technical instruction on rigging boats.
• Information and ideas on physiology and training for rowing
• All presentations from highly experienced coaches.
• Help with video analysis (bring a video of one of your crews as an example).
• Registration as a coach with the Coaching Council and with Rowing Australia.
• A comprehensive manual covering the material presented during the course.

The course generally commences on a Friday evening and continues on half of Saturday and Sunday.

Level 1 course fees must be paid in advance and cover registration fees, manuals, workbooks, venue hire, equipment hire, presenters fees, morning and afternoon teas, light lunches and supper on the Friday evening.

Level 2 Coaching Qualification

The Level 2 Coaching Qualification is reached through attending specific high performance seminars and private study. The Level 1 Qualification is a prerequisite. Subjects commonly covered are:

• Rowing Biomechanics
