September 22-30, 2018 is National Coaches Week, a time to celebrate the tremendous positive impact coaches have on athletes and communities across Canada. This week is an opportunity to recognize coaches for the integral role they play by simply saying #ThanksCoach.

With events held across the country to celebrate coaching, National Coaches Week provides coaches with the recognition they deserve for the time they devote to ensuring Canadians live an active, healthy lifestyle.

During this week, free NCCP online training is available. Coaches are able to take advantage of taking the free Coaching Athletes with a Disability National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) elearning module. Go to http://coach.ca/coaching-athletes-with-a-disability
