IRB/FIRA-AER Level 2 Coaching 7s Accreditation Course, 30 Nov -1 Dec 2012, Lisbon (PT)

04/12/2012 - 15/01/2013

3 Level 2 courses for Sevens Coaching have been organised in Europe in 2012 in conjunction with the IRB/FIRA-AER Training & Education Support “TES” scheme. This 3rd of the courses was attended by delegates from Georgia, Germany, Latvia & Portugal.

 The aim of the course is to develop Sevens coaches who have already collected some Sevens Coaching experience and examine the coaching process and technical aspects of Sevens in much more depth. Their performance as coaches is formally assessed and throughout the course, coaches are encouraged to practise their coaching skills. This Course was facilitated by Sevens specialised IRB licensed Educators Tomaz Morais & Nuno Gramaxo (Portugal). Henrique Rocha (Portugal) acted as Course Manager. Coaches will complete the required work towards accreditation after this part of the Course in their own unions and working with relevant Educators. Many thanks must go to Tomaz, Nuno & Henrique for their support with this course and the Portuguese Rugby Federation for releasing their services and hosting the Course. The first course was organised in Amsterdam September and the second in Bucharest during October.
