Want to be an SAA Coach?

The SAA is looking for SAA members who want to help lead our Running Training Sessions. The club will have an overall running program written and some of the sessions may have prewritten workouts to follow (written by our Head Running Coach, Calvin Gehlen). The session coach will be responsible for picking the route and distance and ensuring the attendees understand the focus of the session based on the prewritten schedule / workout. The hope is for many people to step forward and share the daily coaching duties to spread out the load. If you’re interested in helping to lead this club please send your president a note (president@thesaa.ca).

There is a requirement for all of our coaches to be certified. This means they must have at least the “Community Coaching” level. If you don’t already have this, not to worry as TriBC is holding a Community Coaching clinic this November 6/7 in Delta, but they will fill up fast so sign up now. See TriBC’s website for details and registration info http://www.tribc.org/coaching-development. NOTE: SAA will partially subsidize your coaching clinic fee. Contact your president for more info
