Ipswich Skating Club are fortunate enough to have a team consisting of 4 qualified coaches and 13 volunteer coach support assistants.
It is important that our coaches and volunteers are able to communicate and support skaters who have a wide range of individual needs due to ability, disability and personal challenges. Over the last 9 months all coaches have undertaken an updated enhanced DBS check, safeguarding training, code of conduct, refresher training on delivering the graded skills sessions and peer to peer feedback, as small number have also undertaken first aid training. This has been very well received by all coaches and has enabled them all to develop personally. We have also Two volunteer support coaches who are due to commence a Level 1 Coaching Course and two coaches who are going to undertake Level 2 Coaching Course.
Coaches have all received branded coaching kit which has made them feel valued and part of a team.
