I was just wandering if anyone has any coaching badges? I get mine for free from Sixth Form, we had our induction last week and we start on Wednesday so it would be nice to know what I'm getting myself into . Does anyone else here have any, and what have they done with them?

Thanks

Rob

Is it like the badges you used to get at Cubs and Scouts?

I have coaching badges, but in scotland, so they are SFA.
I have done up to level 3 and work part time as a coach for falkirk football club, paid and voluntary.
Coaching is the best job ive had, i used to be a post man, work in a factory and a supermarket,then i decided to go to college and do sports coaching and sports development and got my coachig badges along the way. I also have a handball coachig badge.
If its the same as scotland, then the first level you just have to turn up and you pass, so dont worry you will love it.

Coaching badges such a stupid idea

I've got my level 1.

If you fail it, then you don't deserve to see a football ever again.

Yeah level one is awesome. Some stuff about not touching children, bit of first aid then a day and a half of football and an open-book exam :cool:

Kevin Turner, Über programmer for SI is a die-hard Falkirk fan and would probably be your best friend forever. :cool:

I've got level 3, after I failed to make it as a pro, which means I am eligible to coach at the highest level in many countries.
