The EHT Parks and Recreation Department will conduct a youth sports coaching clinic for coaches in our local youth sports programs. The course will focus on the basic fundamentals needed to coach any youth sport successfully.
Participants will learn:
- Responsibilities of being a coach
- Effective methods of teaching sports skills
- How to send positive messages to athletes
- How to conduct a safe program, manage risks, and more
- CDC Heads Up: Concussions in Youth Sports Training (certificate awarded)
EHT Parks and Recreation offers in-person Youth Sports Coaches Clinics free of charge throughout the year. As an alternative, EHT coaches may take the Rutger’s SAFETY (Sports Awareness For Educating Today’s Youth) Clinic. The Rutger’s SAFETY Clinic is a three-hour program that informs coaches on the psychological, legal, and medical/first aid aspects of coaching as well as general coaching concepts and training/conditioning youth athletes. Cost of clinic is $40 per coach payable to Rutgers. The Township hosts a Rutger’s clinic locally, however there are online/virtual Rutgers SAFETY clinics offered throughout the state on a regular basis that a coach may sign-up for and attend virtually.
Our in-person clinic and the Rutgers SAFETY Clinic both satisfy the coaches training requirements for our sponsored youth sports organizations coaches. If you have any questions on this or need more information, please call the Director of Parks and Recreation at 609-272-8120.
