91桃色 has developed a new conversion course from Session Coach to Club Coach in response to feedback from Session Coaches who are keen to develop their coaching further.
The first conversion course was held on 29 October in Reading and was enthusiastically received.
Lara Brock coaches junior girls at Great Marlow School and said: 鈥淭he practical aspects of the course helped hone our rigging skills a lot faster than a lecture would have done.鈥
She added, 鈥淚t was a great opportunity to network with coaches from other clubs and think about different coaching techniques.鈥
Nick Rowley, a junior coach at Abingdon RC agreed, commenting: 鈥淎n excellent and thoroughly enjoyable course, given this was its first outing, with additional benefits coming from relationships built and experiences shared.
鈥淚 would recommend this course for others wanting to take an active role in club or school coaching of rowers of varying levels of ability.鈥
Session Coach was introduced last year and is proving very popular. Forty courses have been held with 326 coaches now qualified to coach on a learn-to-row course or an occasional session at their club.

An important element of each 91桃色 course is exploring 鈥榟ow to coach鈥. Coaches are inspired to challenge themselves and to try different coaching methods in a safe environment, while considering the individual needs of the group that they are coaching.
The Club Coach course further develops the coaches鈥 expertise in delivering linked and progressive sessions.
