Level 1 Coaching Award: intended to provide the essential skills and knowledge necessary to run a safe and enjoyable session for players to be introduced to the game.
Level 2 Coaching Award: for those who wish to coach the techniques of the game beyond an introductory level and apply them to tactical play and the coaching of teams. It is only suitable for those with experience of coaching hockey. A prerequisite for this course is the England Hockey Level 1 Coach Award.
Level 3 Coaching Award: for those who wish to coach tactical play and team play to a more advanced level. The prerequisite to attend the Level 3 course is to have completed the Level 2 coach award. The course is only suitable for those who have experience of coaching hockey in a variety of settings. Ideally a club head coach would have the Level 3 Award.
