OTTAWA – The Coaching Association of Canada’s annual National Coaches Week (NCW) is set for September 18-26 providing an opportunity to recognize and say #ThanksCoach to all of the amazing coaches we have in Canada!
Delivering quality baseball programs across our country is simply not possible without the work of thousands of baseball coaches including a dedicated group of coach educators who provide training opportunities each year.
In 2021 alone, over 2,000 baseball coaches across Canada took part in National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) training with over 500 new coaches participating in coach education opportunities.
Baseball is a team sport and it takes a terrific team off the field to ensure the on-field experience is a success!
There are many ways that you can participate in National Coaches Week. A simple #ThanksCoach post on social media to your coach is a great way to show deserved recognition.
