CCBC Clubs

It’s that time of year when programs are starting up and we need to remind everyone of the following:

(1)  Ensure your coaches meet the MMCQP: Below is the Minimum Mandatory Qualifications Policy. Please ensure all your club programs are being delivered by qualified coaches who have met the standard that pertains to the level they are coaching or assisting at. This is a requirement of our liability insurance program. Also refer to:  http://www.crosscountrybc.ca/22-minimum-mandatory-coaching-qualifications#overlay-context=policies-procedures

(2)  Ensure your coaches are currently registered club members: In addition to your coaches  meeting the minimum mandatory coaching qualification standard they must also be registered as a club member each year. If your club offers free memberships to your volunteer coaches as a perk, you still need to register them and pay the $19.00/member fee to Cross Country Canada/Cross County BC in order to have liability insurance coverage.

(3)  Ensure your coaches are currently signed up for a (free) CCC Coaching Licence: All coaches coaching for more than 7 hours/year are now required to sign up for  CCC Coaching Licence in order to have liability insurance coverage. This applies to anyone who performs typical coaching tasks with a member club, including delivering practices or assisting with delivery of practices, with any age group.  Refer to: http://www.cccski.com/Programs/Coaching-Development/CCC-Coaching-License.aspx?lang=en-CA
