LEVEL 1 FIH HOCKEY COACHING CERTIFICATION COURSE
JULY 23 - 26, 2009

The Jamaica Hockey Federation (JHF) in association with the Olympic Solidarity Movement will be staging an International Hockey Federation’s (FIH) Level 1 Coach Certification Course between Thursday, July 23 and Sunday, July 26, inclusive. This certification is internationally recognized and is intended to certify 25 current active local hockey coaches.

This training session will be led by FIH Grade 1 Coach, Niall Sturrock (Scotland) and assisted by, FIH Level II certified coach, Philip Fernandes (Guyana) and Lizzie Sturrock (Scotland), a trainer of coaches.

The JHF board has identified several objectives for the sport directed at increasing the player base and quality of play in the sport. Chief among these is the development of our coaches who are entrusted with the introduction and development of the sport at all levels in the educational system as well as at the club and national level. This focus also coincides with a requirement by the Ministry of Education, communicated to schools in September of 2008, which indicated that all coaches with responsibility for running co-curricular/intra-mural programmes are to be certified to at least a level 1 standard.

Following this accreditation process, the JHF will mandate that all coaches of all teams in JHF sanctioned events must be certified to FIH Level 1.
