Beirut: Twenty-two aspiring coaches successfully completed their AFC ‘C’ Coaching Certificate Course in the Lebanese capital city of Beirut on Thursday.
Bassem Mohammad was the instructor for the basic football coaching course which ran over 13 days.
The ‘C’ course is designed to train coaches and help them develop their basic footballing techniques and skills. It teaches the coaches to organise, direct and conduct basic coaching practices which, in particular, target young players.
The course requires a minimum of 85 hours of study time for both the practical and theoretical sessions.
In their final examination, the students were assessed on their practical coaching abilitiesand their knowledge of the laws of the game.
Holders of the ‘C’ certificate can advance to the ‘B’ certificate course, and then the ‘A’ certificate programme, before taking the course for the continent's highest football coaching credential - the AFC Professional Coaching Diploma or ‘Pro Diploma’.
