Guest tomarkley Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) The Government set down a target of having ALL academy coaches to have their UEFA 'B' license or higher, but due to a shortgage of qualified coaches, people can now work in Academies if they are "working towards" their level three. What I'd like to know, is how many of our coaches have their UEFA 'B' (or 1st4sport level 3) badge, and how many do we have who are level 2 but working towards level 3? I've even heard that Chesterfield have a level one coach employed! Edited January 27, 2009 by tomarkley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an FA directive not the govt - and if they hadn't managed to make the qualifications almost a closed shop then a lot more people would be doing them i guess. They're crap anyway - but at least they prove that people have undertaken a recognised course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tomarkley Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Well I've got my level one, thought it was a bit basic but I'm hoping the level two is a little better. Are you a coach Scram? I do a little bit and its something I'm looking into doing full time in some capacity but I've got plenty of time (I'm only 22). Would be handy to ask a few questions to someone who knows what they are talking about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincolnowl Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) Tom, As you will have noticed, the Level One award is tailored for very basic football coaching and "interested spectators". It is more aboutt getting people to grasp how to run sessions safely and emphasis is on enjoyment. Level 2 is a good step-up as it demands the coach to draw on his/her own football knowledge and requires more specific coaching. There are more opportuniites ofr getting involved in correcting poor play or technique and applying some motiviational factors into sessions. It is extremely worthwhile and is probably the first step for serious budding coaches. Level One, like I say, is very much for the volunteer/parent type who want to help out. Would definetly recommend anyone who wants to take there coaching seriously to get this qualification and look at this as being the basic. Very enjoyable.

I am qualified but don't do a great deal of coaching now - i have moved to the medical side - still do bits and pieces and am still a FACA member I really don't like our coach education tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did enjoy doing my L1 badge, but it didn't teach a great deal about anything I didn't already know. I definitely don't feel it was a waste of time though as I had a good chat with the FA Assessor who basically said I had dealt with adversity very well, was suited to coaching and should go on and do my L2. Hopefully I will do my L2 and prove him correct, although the Sheffield and Hallamshire FA aren't doing any L2 courses in Sheffield anytime soon, the one at Thomas Rotherham College I've missed the deadline for - and the next one is in the Dearne Valley somewhere. I've got plenty of time though, I'm planning on doing a bit of volunteer coaching with a Sheffield Based girls team that I've got existing links to through relatives - It will be a good learning curve. There's no point rushing anyway, apprently the pass rate on the L2 is only about 60% so I need to make sure I have plenty of time and experience so I'm not biting off more than I can chew..

scram Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 May seem a little leftfield - but are there instructions as to the type of football boots the boys/lads are allowed to wear in the academy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
