What kind of time am I expected to commit as a coach or race committee member?
A – In addition to the nine 2 hour sessions (2 hours for bunnies), for first-year coaches there will be a required day-long Introduction to Community Coaching course that allows you to coach children up to six years of age and a weekend Advanced Community Coaching course that allows you to coach the older Jackrabbits. In addition the club puts on skills sessions every season for all coaches before the sessions start. All coaches must attend an evening pre-season all-coaches meeting where time is spent with the Program Coordinator and Session Coordinators to organize the groups and discuss how the sessions will unfold. Take a look at the required commitments for coaches at the Volunteer Coaches page. First-year race committee members are encouraged to take the Cross Country Canada Level 1 Officials course and assist with club at least two events. For further details, take a look at our Volunteer Race Committee page.
