Pickleball England Curriculum - Club Instructor

This Club Instructor course is the second step in our coaching curriculum, with Pickleball Leadership Certification (or Club Leader) being the first.

Who is it for?

• Certified Club Leaders that want to start a club or want to support their club by organising coaching sessions for new/improvers
• Existing coaches teaching other sports and want to be able to add pickleball to their repetoire

At the end of the session, if you meet the standard, you will receive a certificate of competence, to show that you have undertaken training. 

Attending the Club Instructor workshop is one component of this step, resulting in a certificate of attendance. To secure a pass and to be listed on the PbE website and receive PbE Public Liability Insurance cover, students must also:

• Take an online exam to demonstrate understanding of the rules of pickleball/ instructing fundamentals.

• Complete a safeguarding tutorial and assessment.

• Clear an Enhanced DBS. To do this simply go to:- https://www.carecheck.co.uk. Where you need to put a company name/reference, place PICKLEBALLENGLAND but leave organisation
  code blank. When you have completed your submission, pbE will
  receive a notification that an application needs to be reviewed.
  We will then arrange a zoom call to verify your ID, take details down, etc for processing. Within a couple of days you will be notified of the outcome. The cost is paid directly to Care Check.

How much does it cost?

We want to keep the costs as low as possible but need to cover venue costs, tutor fees/expenses and cost of booklets.  These two pilot sessions will be priced at £120 per student.
