Instructor: Jay Cohen 

The Level I program consists of two workshops (Coaching Ethics and Coaching Performance) where coaches will learn skills and techniques to introduce ultimate and its skills to new players. Participants will be taught how to manage effective practices, teach and maintain Spirit of the Game, interact with and utilize parents, improve the fitness of their team, maintain high professional coaching standards, and behave both ethically and legally while coaching.

Coaches of teams at any level and leaders in the ultimate community are encouraged to attend. You must be a current USA Ultimate member to attend. They also must be or become a USA Ultimate Coach member to obtain certification. If you are under 21, you may attend the workshop, but your certification will be held until you turn 21.
