Coaches Training **

Scroll down for more detailed information on each class.

**During the winter months it is especially important that you pre-register for all coaches training!  Doing so will ensure you are properly informed of any changes or cancellations that may occur due to weather and/or numbers of participants.

*Special Olympics, Inc. has created two coach development courses that are now required to be completed by all Special Olympics coaches by 12/31/15.  You may fulfill this requirement by attending one of Rhonda's sessions (she will be holding sessions throughout the state in each area so no one should have to drive too far to attend).  Another option--for $35 you can complete the West Virgnia University continuing education program.  Contact Rhonda for more information on either option. 

If you have questions about any of the sport-specific training sessions, contact Michelle Haney at 515-986-5520.

For questions about the Principles of Coaching & Coaching Special Olympics Athletes, contact Rhonda Schwarzkopf at 515-986-5520.
