SOBC Swimming Coach Development Webinar

Adding to our online coach education opportunities, Special Olympics BC will be hosting a virtual SOBC Swimming Coach Development Webinar on February 8, 2021! This workshop will be open to all Special Olympics BC swimming coaches.

These sport-specific workshops are for coaches only. Please register by clicking here. The registration deadline is Sunday, February 7 at 12 p.m. PT. 

Please stay tuned to our website and social media channels for announcements of upcoming Coach Development Webinars in other sports!

SPEAKERS

Heather Young will use a video to present on how to develop the basic skill level of all athletes. SOBC sport performance expert Jacques Thibault will provide the "final" draft of the SOBC Skill and Fitness Badge program for swimming. SOBC Sport Coordinator Jean Tetarenko will present a draft for virtual swim meets. 

LOGISTICS

Participating coaches are asked to ensure you have your NCCP number ready so this webinar can be added to your NCCP Locker. If you do not have one, please email Lois McNary (SOBC Vice President, Sport) before the workshop and she will be happy to assist.

The webinar will be recorded for future SOBC resource use, but no participants will be required to have their electronic device's camera on to display themselves. If/when you wish to ask questions, you may do so via the messaging chat feature of the webinar; this and more will be discussed during the webinar introduction.

Participants are asked to join the webinar 5 minutes before the official start time in order to allow time to test and set up technical requirements.
