IPSF Coaches
The IPSF is working towards raising the standard of national and world coaches within Pole Sports. In order to become a recognised IPSF coach we have put in place a 6 year proficiency system to increase the educational skill, knowledge and safety of all coaches recognised by the IPSF. This will help to protect, inspire and encourage athletes around the world as well as helping to professionally grow our sport in line with intentional sporting guidelines.
Coaches must:
- apply to the IPSF to become recognised national before becoming a world coach
- apply and have certified in the IPSF Code of Points Training 2024 (applicable to the apparatus you want to be a coach in - an IPSF Judges certification is also acceptable)
- complete & pass an Anatomy & Physiology course
- complete the WADA Anti-Doping Training Course
If a coach would like to qualify as a World's coach, they must have qualified as a National Coach before the National competition.
