Become a Coach or Progress to Next Level!

6 Jan 2025

We know that coaching encourages people to start in sport and physical activity, improves enjoyment, maintains engagement, improves fitness, develops skills and builds lifelong connections to sport and activity.


This means that coaches, leaders and instructors play a critical role in the development of any sport  or activity, and in the lives of the people they coach. Good coaches ensure participants have positive experiences, so they are more likely to continue and achieve their potential.


We are really keen to encourage more people to become coaches and work with Archery GB to arrange courses for Scotland. This includes the Session Coach Level 1 which is a starting point for archers who want to deliver motivating training sessions for beginners. Using the resources provided on the course you will be able to deliver a pre designed course for a group of beginners. This course trains individuals to be able to lead archery sessions independently using resources from the course and working with groups of up to 12 people.


For any Level 1 coaches wishing to progress their coaching they can sign up to the Development Coach Level 2 course. The Development Coach course is aimed at coaches who want to design club training programmes and start developing the technical, physical and psychological information a coach needs to work with beginners and improvers in recurve and compound.
