Coaching Development "As community leaders, coaches play an important role in providing healthy,
active lifestyles for our youth."
– Ted Nolan, NHL Coach of the Year 1996/1997 (Ojibway)
The availability of qualified coaches is the cornerstone of effective community sport and recreation. That is why the ASC has established the National Aboriginal Coaching and Leadership Program (NACLP). It encourages Aboriginal coaches to become certified through the National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP). Designed to respond to the unique needs of Aboriginal coaches, the NACLP has developed the Aboriginal Coaching Manual that is being used to supplement the current NCCP curriculum. In further support of the professional development of certified Aboriginal coaches, the NACLP has established the Aboriginal Coach Mentor Program. This program operates in association with the high performance training camps where Aboriginal coaches are brought together to train under the guidance of some of Canada’s top national level coaches.
