The 1st4sport Level 2 Award in Sessional Hockey Coaching is for learners with a minimum of a year’s experience of delivering relevant hockey sessions and have an insight into the new GB Coaching Strategy through attendance at a Great Britain Coaching Club Workshop.

It is suitable for those who coach hockey sessions to children or adults through Back 2 Hockey, After School Clubs, Summer Camps and Adult Club Participation.

Coaches may find this course beneficial if they are supporting sessions in a hockey programme (i.e. Club Team, JDC, JAC or School Team).

They will gain a key understanding of the practical and theoretical aspects of planning, delivering and reviewing hockey sessions, key to developing their career in this area.

This qualification is recognised as the industry standard Level 2 qualification for session coaches in hockey by England Hockey, Great Britain Hockey, Hockey Wales and Scottish Hockey. It is further supported by UK Coaching.
