2012 Bench Staff Selection
Tuesday, January 10, 2012 at 11:01PM Bench Staff (coaches, trainers and managers) for the 2012 season are now being considered. This year we will need to staff provincial teams and local league teams so there are plenty of opportunities for people to participate.
If you are interest in applying you must submit your name, team and position requested and your credentials to the president by e-mail or in writing now.
If you are applying to coach the request MUST include a copy of your transcript from the NCCP website to verify you are eligible. If you have not yet attended a coaching clinic the club will help with the cost, though our budget limits us on how many we can send.
IMPORTANT: Starting in 2012 coaches for Bantam and up MUST take the new level 2 course to be allowed on the bench (though there are some exceptions; eg- if you have level 1 prior to 2009).
There are specific requirements to be certified to coach and you will not be assigned to a team if you do not meet the criteria. Vic will be able to guide you on these requirements, however, the NCCP website (at coach.ca) is the only thing that the OLA will accept.
COACHES WHO TOOK THE COURSE IN 2011 AND HAVE YET TO SUBMIT THEIR WORKBOOKS are not in a position to apply... GET IT DONE, submit it to the OLA and KEEP A COPY.
DO NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are qualified.
Decisions will start being made in February.
