Hi All,

This is the first level course for people wishing to become a paddlesports coach. The course covers all elements of the syllabus. Including the foundation safety and rescue test. Students on the course will leave able to operate under direct supervision or under remote supervision depending on experience and aptitude.

Students should have the 2 star award (old 2 star kayak AND 2 star canoe acceptable). Student MUST register with the BCU and complete parts of the coach level 1 workbook that they will receive prior to the course. following the course a personalised action plan will be designed and administration forwarded to the BCU who will issue licences following a successful CRB check. 

PLEASE NOTE: THIS COURSE IS BOAT BASED AND THE 2 STAR AWARD IS A PREREQUISITE
