The Connacht Regional Management Committee (CRMC) welcome the launch of Swim Ireland’s Level 3 Swimming Coach qualification.
To support coach development and strengthen our clubs, the CRMC will contribute 50% of the course costs on the basis of one per club for this and future Level 3 Swimming Coach courses.
The CRMC urge clubs to use any remaining ‘Clubmark’ education vouchers as part-funding and encourage coaches to seek other grant funding opportunities such as ‘Women in Sport’. In the interest of fairness, the CRMC funding will not be available in addition to such other grants.
