Coaching Athletic Development (CAD) Level 1 is Athletics New Zealand’s new community-level coach education programme. CAD Level 1 teaches coaches the technical fundamentals of 11 athletics events and will help coaches to confidently coach athletics skills to Under 18 athletes. The course bridges the gap between the Run Jump Throw Foundation Programme (target age 7 to 11) and competition-based athletics. All CAD Level 1 event modules are delivered as practical workshops that take 1.5-2 hours. This includes time for participant assessment and observation by the Coach Educator. At the end of the course, coaches will be awarded a “CAD Level 1” certificate.
In the East and South Auckland course we will be holding the following CAD modules:
Sprints and Hurdles 9-10:30am
Long Jump and Triple Jumps 10:30am-12pm
