Accreditation

We couldn’t operate without our wonderful voluntary coaches, and we’re always happy to encourage more people to become a coach.

All coaches and assistant coaches are required to have a current Working With Children Check.  In addition, rep team coaches are required to  complete a statutory declaration about any criminal record.  Collingwood Basketball Association takes this very seriously and will not allow any person to coach unless the necessary checks are valid.  We will assist with the necessary processes.


Collingwood Basketball Association expects that as a mimumum requirement all coaches should complete the free online course ‘Community Coaching General Principles’ offered by the Australian Sports Commission.

You are encouraged also to complete any of the other courses offered by the Australian Sports Commission.
