After chatting with some people, I decided to put myself forward to do a cricket coaching course. Finally got some feedback from Kent cricket.
“The first course on the coaching pathway is the new Foundation 1 (this is replacing the previous qualification called Level 2, which you may know some people who have this). This course lasts 2 weeks and is completely primarily through online modules with 2 face-to-face assessment days to be completed. There are also some pre-requisites which need to be completed:
ECB DBS – this is essential for all coaches and also must be an ECB one, not from another organisation
Completed Safeguarding Young Cricketers module – this is an online ECB course on how to coach safely with children. You are automatically signed up to this once you have registered for a coaching course
Minimum age of candidates is 17 years old.”
So watch this space. ?
