Covering 12 different sporting disciplines, The Abu Dhabi Sports Council (ADSC) organised initiative aims to provide licenses and certificates to 400 male and female coaches.
Open for both physical education teachers in government schools and private academies, the Coach training programme includes football, volleyball, basketball, handball, water sports, cycling, athletics, fencing, weightlifting, racket games, archery and judo.
The programme consists of four stages, the basic courses that include child safety, first aid, anti-doping, and optional classes such as kinesiology, physical preparation and nutrition.
The second stage includes specialised courses approved by the concerned authorities.
The third is a refresher course to enrich knowledge and continuity of learning, and the fourth and final stage is a practical experience in European clubs.
