COACHES and ON-ICE ASSISTANTS
NOTE: FUN3 and U12 Coaches who wish to take the more advanced Competition Introduction Training (i.e. rather than CSI - Community Sport Initiation) must first contact the APRA Coaching Coordinator for approval. Once approved, the coach will be eligible for Third Party Funding and reimbursement, provided they also follow the steps outlined below for U14-U19 coaches.
*IMPORTANT: Third Party Funding: To be eligible for reimbursement from APRA, coaches must FIRST confirm whether the course they intend to take is eligible for funding offered through the NCCP Coach Bursary Program. This includes required courses for U14 and older coaches, and optional courses for all coaches. Established by the Coaching Association of Ontario (CAO), the NCCP Coach Bursary Program provides funding directly to coaches for eligible NCCP Workshops (60% reimbursement), and NCCP Evaluations (90% reimbursement).
