AFP Brings PPR Coaching Certification Level 1 Clinic to Singapore with Gary Tan at Helm – Pickleball News Asia
The Asia Federation of Pickleball, with the help of the World Pickleball Federation and a bevy of sp
PPR Level 1 certification workshops are specifically designed to guide instructors who are working with adult pickleball players at the beginner and improver levels towards certification. Each clinic is helmed by highly-trained clinicians, who will be responsible for creating an effective learning environment for all coaches.
If you are interested to take part in this PPR Coaching Certification Level 1 workshop in Singapore, you must be at least a 3.5 level player. You can find information about these levels on the USA Pickleball website (www.usapa.org) for a self-rating. In the alternative, you can play in an AFP-sanctioned tournament to be assigned a rating.
Qualified participants will need to pay SGD $450 each. This fee is inclusive of all course materials, PPR participation T-Shirt, online assessment, and a PPR certificate, which will be given upon successful completion and passing of the exam.
Before attending a PPR certification workshop, you must read through your study guide two or three times and must complete the online video pre-course. All study materials will be sent to accepted coaches via email before the course. In the event proper, your clinician will be teaching and reviewing material based on the assumption that you have mastered the contents of those items. In other words, come prepared—very prepared!
The event will last for five hours on a pickleball court, so you’re encouraged to bring the snacks, hydration, and sunscreen to keep you going. There will be small, brief breaks throughout the class, but no official meal breaks. This is why finger food and bite-sized treats would be best. It’s also recommended that you come having eaten already and fully hydrated. In addition, ddon’t forget your paddle, court shoes, and extra socks!
Once done with the training and after passing the certification assessments, each participant will be presented with a PPR certification. Even better, the contact details of all certified coaches will be listed on the AFP website at https://www.afpickleball.org/academy.
