Coaches Association - Kent Hockey Association has for a number of years wanted to set up a Coaching Association for the benefit of coaches working in Kent.

Among other things this would help to provide the courses required by coaches in the County and to set up a procedure for the completion of CRBs. The EH Single System has made such an Association essential. To ensure that this System works for the benefit of young players in Kent we need to know how many coaches we have, active and not active, qualified and unqualified, in the County, and how many wish to become involved in coaching in this initiative, which will provide an excellent platform for those wanting to develop a career pathway in hockey coaching. The Coaching Association will also provide an excellent system for our young players to thrive in, give easy access for dealing with the paperwork to gain CRB clearance and help in gaining qualifications by making courses available to our members.Some of you may be happy to continue coaching purely in your clubs and some may wish to become actively involved with the new System. Whichever, I hope that you will join our newly formed Coaching Association. See NEWSLETTER for Membership form. These have also been sent to Clubs, or can be obtained directly from me, This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
