Level 200 Coach Development

by USA Rugby

Description

All contact teams require an active Level 200 Coach to be in compliance with USA Rugby.Coaches must already be a Level 100 coach before registering to attend a Level 200 clinic.The Level 200 Coach Certification consists of online pre-course work and attendance at an in-person clinic. The course structure helps to blend the “how to coach” theory with the practical implementation of coaching Rugby.

The Level 200 Coach Certification focuses on player welfare and teaching players the technical skills to play safely. The assessment requires coaches to demonstrate effective coaching techniques. These techniques include teaching through games, technical skill development through progressions and collaborative coaching.

What do I have to do to complete this level?
- Complete the "Built with Chocolate Milk" webinar and post-webinar survey
- Complete the Level 100 (Rugby Ready) requirements and have it added to your USAR profile
- Attend the one-day, in-person Level 200 clinic

What Will be Expected of Coaches?

All Coaches will need to be certified in the new program. The minimum USA Rugby coach certification requirement will entail the completion of the Level 100 Coaching Course and the Player Protection Package. These courses will be provided online at no additional cost and concentrate on familiarizing coaches with the game and essential ethical issues including player safety and abuse. 

Are Coaches Still Eligible to Dual Role?
