______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Scottish Rowing members can join the Coach Club for no additional fee. The Coach Club is listed as an option alongside all other Scottish Rowing member clubs on the JustGo system, and members can join this, in addition to their own rowing club.
What is the purpose?
This register helps us (Scottish Rowing) see who you are and where you are coaching in Scottish clubs, which helps us target support where it is needed. It enables us to communicate with you about coaching opportunities, activities, workshops, and courses. It also allows us to provide you with ‘Professional Indemnity’ insurance cover, which your normal Scottish Rowing membership does not provide while you are coaching.
What will you get?
We are currently reviewing our Coach Register Scheme. New members will be given a free subscription to UK Coaching for 1 year and will be invited to any appropriate SR workshops and events targeting coach development or networking.
Why Do you need Insurance Cover?
Even with the most careful planning and preparation, things can go wrong when you're coaching crews or participants. That's why coaches need insurance to protect themselves against the unexpected accidents that can occur before, during and after sessions.
As a registered coach, you will be covered by the Scottish Rowing public liability and professional indemnity insurance for your rowing coaching activities.
How do I join?
These qualifications and credentials will be verified and approved by us which in turn provides confidence to our insurance provider. You will then get insurance to cover your coaching activities.
It will also be assumed that by joining the ‘Coach’ club you will have read and agree to abide by the Scottish Rowing Coaches Code of Conduct, which can be read here.
The Coach Club is listed as an option alongside all other Scottish Rowing member clubs on the JustGo system, and you can join this, in addition to your own rowing club. There is no additional fee.
What are the requirements to be a member of the ‘Coach’ club?
It is expected that you will meet certain minimum requirements. You will be given a grace period of 6 months to meet the initial requirements which will include:
These can be evidenced by a certificate of participation in these courses or by the completion of a British Rowing coaching course (e.g., UKCC Level 2 Club Coach/Session Coach, or an UKCC Level 3 Senior Club Coach). Evidence should be uploaded to your Scottish Rowing JustGo account.
If you require assistance to achieve the minimum requirements, please contact Cara O'Donnell, Sports Programme Coordinator: cara.odonnell@scottish-rowing.org.uk
