Training for all levels of the game

We support coaches at all levels of the coaching pathway – whether just starting out or wanting to progress to coach at national and international level.

There are entry-level courses to give you the skills and knowledge you need to start on your coaching career, right through to qualifications for the highest level.

We require all coaches to have a membership and go through the DBS process if you will be coming into contact with players aged 18 and under.

Introduction to coaching

This course has been developed to provide learners with the confidence to deliver safe, fun and inclusive basketball sessions under the supervision of an independent coach. Previously, this was the Level 1 coaching award.
