Trampolining Coaching Qualifications

Trampolining coaching courses are available accross the country and are organised by British Gymnastics. Becuase the courses are run by British Gymnastics (not us) we can't always provide up-to-date information about them so you should contact them for up-to-date information. We do provide information on courses we know about in our events section.

Courses must be taken sequentially (if you haven't got any Trampolining coaching qualifications, you must start at Level 1)

British Gymnastics coaching courses are now UKCC accredited which means that they are longer than they used to be and hence more expensive. A level 1 course will cost around £300.

Level 1: Trampoline Assistant Club Coach (Trampoline ACC)

Can teach basic skills including seat landing, front & back landings as well as 3/4 turn overs in preparation for front somersaults.

 

Level 2: Trampoline Coach (Trampoline C)

Building on the level 1 course, the level 2 course increases the skill taught to Front and Back sommersault (Tucked).
Whilst this qualification allows you to teach trampolining alone up to front and back somersaults, clubs should have a 'club coach' qualified coach as well who is qualified to run a club.

 

Trampolining for Teachers Award

The Trampolining for teachers award (as the name suggests) is a qualification for teacher to allow them to teach trampolining in schools. The courses are essentially the same as the levels 1 & 2 courses above, but the Teachers award doesn't include the common core module, and also you are not required to be a member of BG to take this course. This course is only open to qualified PE teachers, or teachers who already hold a BG qualification (such as gymnastics coach). This is to ensure that the common core module knowledge is covered.

The trampolining for teachers course is also provided by Independent Coach Education. They provide a two-day course for level one and another for level 2. Please see their website to view the courses.
