2024 NCCP Coaching Certification Clinics

Pickleball Alberta is pleased to announce that we have confirmed a number of National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) clinics for 2024.

The NCCP Pickleball Pathway is the cornerstone to Canada’s coaching program and is geared towards people who not only love playing Pickleball, but who want to help other people enter the sport and to play it better. This includes local ambassadors committed to growing the game, instructors and coaches tasked with refining skills, and even club managers who need to plan and deliver great Pickleball programming.

The first step along the coach education pathway is the program called Instructor 1: Introducing Pickleball. This one-day course is focused on preparing instructors so that they can ensure that a new player’s first experience with Pickleball is safe, inclusive and incredibly fun. Participants will learn to manage groups, organize play and focus on key fundamentals so that new players are set up for success and go home sharing a passion for Pickleball. This Level includes the completion of a 3-hour online portion in advance of the one-day in-person session.

Instructor 2: Developing Recreational Players is focused on supporting instructors who can help existing Pickleball players to play the game better. With an increased focus on intermediate tactics and technique, this course takes place over two-days and prepares instructors to develop in their players a wide range of key skills that they will need as they advance.

In 2024, the following Level I and Level II courses will be offered in Alberta!
