New British Canoeing Coach Award Launched

05 Jan 2018

British Canoeing have announced the launch of their new Coach Award with a structured pathway for each paddlesports discipline.



The new Coach Award Pathway is designed for people whose core function is to coach paddlers who want to gain or improve paddlesport skills - from complete beginners to paddlers looking to develop their skills in a specific  discipline or environment.
