PCR Padel Certification Workshops (Level 1 and 2) are designed for coaches working with players at beginner and intermediate levels. Each certification workshop is delivered by highly-trained clinicians responsible for creating an effective learning environment for all coaches. Once a coach registers for a PCR certification workshop, they are emailed access to an online video course. After completing this material, coaches attend the 2 to 3-day in-person course. At the conclusion of the course, all coaches will be asked to give a 20-minute lesson, demonstrating their teaching and demonstration skills, as well as their understanding of the PCR methodology and a feeding test. To complete their certification, coaches will also need to take an online multiple-choice exam within a week following the workshop. The online exam measures what was learned throughout the workshop, as well as general padel knowledge.

 

To become certified, coaches must demonstrate an acceptable level of competence in three key areas:

• Playing and demonstrating skills

• Teaching

• General padel knowledge

 

All workshop participants must be current members of PCR.
