Langford will be hosting coaching clinics over the off-season.  These are open to anyone interested in coaching whether you have experience or not, and if you coach with Langford Fastball next season, the cost of your courses will be reimbursed. 

If you are coaching or plan to coach at an A or B level, you should take the Competition Introduction Weekends 1 and 2, being offered November 27/28 and January 15/16 (both must be taken to be Competition Introduction trained). 

On the other hand, if you are currently coaching or are interested in coaching U11 and below or C ball at any age, you should take the Community Coach clinic being offered on February 19/20. 

To register for any of the coaching courses or for further information, please contact Riki Jessup at coachingdirector@langfordfastball.ca.
