The cost of the theory element alone is £120.

BRSF learners who have achieved these modules in the past 3 years can receive Accreditation for Prior Learning.

Practical Element
The practical element takes the form of a number of practical workshops and includes how to teach the first four grades of the BRSF Basic Skills Scheme “Skate Smart”.

The BRSF Level 2 Coaching Course, practical element is applicable to all disciplines of skating and both inline and quad skates.

Assessment of this element is based upon observing the candidates successfully teaching a group of non-skaters the basic elements of skating, such as: how to tie-up boots correctly, how to stand-up, move forward, how to turn and so on, through to becoming modestly comfortable and becoming modestly competent and safe when wearing roller boots.


Where & When
Practical takes place in Studio One and the YMCA Sports Hall Southport YMCA, 81 Houghton Street, Southport, PR9 0PR on Saturday 28th July & Sunday 29th July 2007 from 9am~4.30pm on both days.

Attendance at both sessions are required to complete the course

The BRSF Level 2 Coaching Qualification is appropriate for teaching young people to skate in schools and leisure centres and is becoming the standard qualification required by an increasing number of Education Authorities and Local Authority Leisure Service Departments across the UK.

The cost of both the theory & the practical elements is £200.


Source of Funding
The cost of training sports coaches is very often fundable from Local Authority Sports Development Grant, please contact the Sports Development Department of the Council that your club is located within and make appropriate enquiries.

This project was made possible through part funding by the European Social Fund in partnership with Southport College, and by grant aid from the Big Lottery Fund.

The development of Inline Skating at Southport YMCA was made possible by Sport England as part of the Active England Project
