Understanding the Newly Revised Coach License System

Coach License Overview

About the coach license system (purpose of the revision)

The coach license system aims to help players acquire the necessary knowledge and abilities by obtaining a coach license, build a safe and secure environment for players, and promote the enjoyment of sports such as basketball. The aim is to expand this field and contribute to the improvement of human and competitive abilities.

In order to create an environment in which as many players as possible can enjoy playing basketball and grow as people and players, coaches themselves must improve their interpersonal skills and develop appropriate strategies according to the situations and needs of the players and team. It is necessary to support.

Unfortunately, it is also true that in the basketball world, there are various problems in the coaching field (violence, abusive language, harassment, etc.), and in this sense, it is important to train coaches who have not only basketball knowledge but also human skills. We sought.

In order to solve these current issues and train many better coaches, we have revised the coach license system from 2019.
