Coaching Accreditation
In July 2020, Baseball Australia revised their coach accreditation system, and integrated the USA Baseball Certification courses A, B and C nationally.
Coach Accreditation is an obligatory requirement of both Baseball Australia and Baseball Canberra. This requirement applies to Coaches, Assistant Coaches and “Specialist” Coaches.
A Coach has a legal responsibility, owing a duty of care to all participants under his/her care, which cannot be avoided. Being an accredited Coach acknowledges awareness of that responsibility, and indicates that certain steps have been undertaken to attain a specific level of knowledge, with a level of confidence and ability.
The following information outlines the steps you must complete in order to obtain coaching accreditation.
