Northeast Zone Baseball is “RBI Certified” by Baseball Canada. A requirement of that designation is coach certification. At minimum, coaches in the NEZ House League program must have the Online Initiation Coach Module and must complete the online Respect in Sport Coach Clinic.
Coaches are mentors, motivators and leaders. Along with parents and teachers, coaches have a profound impact on the future of our children. It’s a great responsibility, and Canada’s two million coaches embrace it with passion and dedication. The National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) gives coaches the confidence to succeed. When you take an NCCP workshop, you’ll not only gain sport-specific technical abilities, but also leadership and decision-making skills.
NCCP training will open doors to new opportunities in coaching and in life.
