Coaches

The club is built around coaching.  There is always a need for additional coaches or assistant coaches.  If you are interested in coaching in any capacity we would be very interested in hearing from you.  Please contact Greg Russell at Greg_Russell@telus.net.

We need coaches for various age groups this upcoming season.  All expenses are paid for coaches and club gear is provided.  In addition, the club will pay for courses towards coaching certification and we offer bursaries for college and university students who participate as coaches.

Coaching Code of Conduct

Volleyball BC has a Coaching Code of Conduct that all coaches should be aware of and comply with.  In addition, all coaches are required to submit a criminal record check form prior to the beginning of the season.  Download the Criminal Record Check letter and take it to the RCMP detachment in the City in which you reside.  Usually there is no fee for this service.  However, if there is a fee then the club will reimburse you.

Coaching Certification

Volleyball BC has a mandatory coaching certification policy.  Certification required is as follows:

16&U and Below: Fully certified Level 1 (Technical, Practical and Theory)

17&U and Above: Fully certified Level 2 (Technical, Practical and Theory)

Head coaches may be required to show their proof of certification prior to each match at all events (including Super Volleys and Super Series).  If requirements are not met at Provincial and National Championships, the club is fined $100.
