Coaching Accreditation
NSW Coaching Accreditation
If you are interested in doing a Coaching Accreditation Course contact the TTNSW office so that arrangements can be put in place for a course to be organised. Remember that it is now a requirement in Police Community Youth Clubs, most Council properties and Government Schools that only accredited persons be allowed to coach. This is because of insurance.
If you think that there is any error in the details or if you believe that your name has been omitted from the Coaches List please write to, NSW Coaching/Development Officer at P O Box 6952 SILVERWATER NSW 2128, outlining your reasons.
In order to be recognised by the National Coaching Accreditation Scheme (NCAS), Table Tennis Australia and/or Table Tennis NSW and/or States and Territory Associationsallcoaches must complete the appropriate National Coaching Accreditation Scheme (NCAS) course and the accompanying paperwork.
