Competition Development (COMP-DEV)

Competition Development (Comp Dev or CD) is for high-performance coaches. Canada Winter Games (CWG), National Ringette League (NRL), National Teams. Ringette Canada is working towards having more of our AA and NRL coaches completing this training.

Comp Dev requires some multi-sport courses offered through Provincial Coaching Associations (you can check the NCCP Calendar by province, or on Alberta Sport’s calendar page), as well as sport-specific training put on by Ringette Canada and/or Provincial bodies.

There are 8 multi-sport modules that need to be done, and the first 5 must be complete BEFORE you can register for the sport-specific. You can view descriptions of each module on the CAC's Training Module page.

Developing Athletic Abilities
Coaching & Leading Effectively
Prevention & Recovery
Manage a Sport Program
Performance Planning
Managing Conflict
Leading a Drug-Free Sport
Psychology of Performance

If you are interested in this process, you can consult Ringette Canada's pathways page.

We encourage all AA and NRL coaches to attend the courses in their area, though any coach is welcome to sign up.

Check the Alberta Sport Calendar to view the schedule and register. Note that if there is more than one day/date listed, it means they are BOTH part of ONE COURSE. Click on the course title to read what it’s about, confirm dates & times, and to register.

Every 12-18 months Ringette Canada will host a Competition Development Ringette training course. Interested coaches who have completed the 5 pre-requisite multi-sport modules should let Ringette Alberta know they are ready for that opportunity when it arises.
