NCCP Coach Pathway
Racquetball Canada is committed to excellence, whether you are coaching those who are first-time players or those who compete at the elite international level. We work in partnership with the Coaching Association of Canada (CAC) to provide coach education and development opportunities that fit the needs of our coaches.
Racquetball Canada’s coaching education program links directly to our Long Term Development framework (LTD) and provides coaches with the right knowledge and skills to help all athletes develop to their potential .
