 Coach Education:
Club coaches are encouraged to assume responsibility for their own continuing personal development. They should undertake mentoring, workshops etc, because they believe that their coaching will improve as a result.
Coach re-licensing/maintenance will be dependant upon the renewal of the CRB Disclosure Check in the relevant home country, which is currently a 3-year cycle. A Club Verifier must complete this check at least 1 month before the coaching license expires. Swansea Harriers has two verifiers Neal Merry and Ian Griffiths, Ian is also the clubs welfare officer.
