Coaching Courses

Hinckley RFC Coaches who wish to book external Coach training courses or would like to know more about what is available within the club should contact the Hinckley RFC Coaching Co-ordinator Mick Croasdale on 07715 541865 or email michael.croasdale@ericsson.com

It is recommended that as a minimum coaches for U7 & U8s attend Tag training and U9s and above attend Rugby Ready.

Coaches should also attend 3 CPD short courses over a 3 year period (on average one a year) to keep their licence live.

Course Application Process

Please submit your application form to Mick (available from the link below) as early as possible as your place cannot be confirmed without it and there is a lead time applying for courses.

Joining instructions will be sent to you by the RFU within two weeks of the course start date.

Due to the need to pay for courses in advance, if you cannot attend you will be asked to reimburse the club, unless you can get a replacement to attend in your place.

Local courses are summarised below, but if you can't find what you are looking for follow the link http://www.rfu.com/TakingPart/Coach/FindACourse/MidlandsEast.aspx for other regional options.
