6 upcoming Coaching Development workshops in September-October

Published Tue 15 Sep 2020

 

The Continuing Coach Education (CCE) programme gives coaches the platform to continually upgrade themselves in their area of coaching. Sport Singapore believes that coaches are able to deliver higher standards of coaching as they become more proficient and knowledgeable. The SportSG Coaching Development department puts up a variety of workshops catered to the masses, hence we decided we will scroll through the CCE Course Calendar and pick out some of the interesting and relevant workshops for Gymnastics so that you don't have to. For the full list of CCE programmes conducted or publicized by the Coaching Development department, please refer to the Course Calendar.

Attending these courses/activites can contribute to your learning hours, especially if you are a NROC coach. NROC membership is valid for three years, during which time coaches are expected to accumulate minimum learning hours by attending regular CCE activities.

That said, the provision of publicity and recognition of CCE hours for the mentioned courses/workshops/seminar is purely informative and coaches are advised to select their choice of CCE courses/workshops/seminars best suited for their learning needs. Sport Singapore does not have direct regulatory powers over the organisers delivering the publicised courses/workshops/seminars.

Introduction to Tactical Strength & Conditioning

Tactical Strength and Conditioning (S&C) is the application of S&C principles in a tactical (e.g. military, law enforcement, etc) training environment. More often than not, within early stage tactical performance programmes there is a misguided attempt to directly apply the general S&C exercises to the war fighter. These exercises rarely find footing in the programmes that successfully prepare soldiers for today’s organic and fluid battlespace and deployment schedule. 

This workshop will cover the following topics Principles of training, Importance of periodisation in tactical fitness, Resistance training and techniques, Resistance training programme design 1 and Theoretical assessment.
