Badminton Europe is happy to inform you that we will organise a combined BWF/BEC level 1 and level 2 Coach Education Course for (former) players. We are doing this in close cooperation with the Spanish Badminton federation. The course is open to former players but also players who have ambitions to become a coach in the future.
The objectives of the combined BWF/BEC level 1 and level 2 Coach Education Course for former players are:
• To educate former players to coaches to utilise their skills and experience that they have acquired in their active careers.
Prerequisites for participants:
• Must have been a top 150 player on the world ranking.
• Speak English on an intermediate level.
