PPYCC would welcome the help of further coaches. We can support those with ambitions in coaching and those who are new to coaching or cycling. This message is aimed at the latter as PPYCC have no Level 1 Coaches.
Level 1 coaching allows you to support Level 2 coaches and also to lead a small group of riders independently. To become a Level 1 coach you need to attend two days of training on consecutive Saturdays. Courses cost £260 and PPYCC can provide full financial support to anyone who wishes to embrace coaching with us or a contribution to those who may like a little involvement with less commitment. You have to be 16 years or over, but do not have to have any particular experience to take part in the Level 1 course. Ideally you are a competent bike rider, but even being able to ride a bike is not a prerequisite. Becoming a coach helps develops your communication skills and join in the fun we all have. This offer is open to anyone who meets the qualification criteria, essentially being 16 years or older. We would welcome inquiries from members.
