British Wrestling is always looking out for ways to support our members, coaches and volunteers. We’ve been able to put together some free courses that will help you pass the time and upskill yourself while you’re at home.

Clean Sport Week is here and it’s starting off with a bang! UK Anti-Doping has released their Coach Clean Certificate for FREE for the week. Book now to keep the course for 12 months!
Interactive e-learning designed to give you the knowledge and understanding to help guide your athletes.
“Calling all coaches – use your influence to inspire the next generation of clean athletes.” Paul Moss, UKAD Head of Education
Coach Clean is the easy-to-follow e-learning course for coaches who want to know more about clean sport and understand their own responsibilities with regard to anti-doping. Endorsed by UK Coaching – the central agency for coaching in the UK – it’s the only anti-doping course available in the UK that relates to the coach’s role. Coach Clean now includes an assessment that requires re-taking every 2-years to ensure that coaches knowledge is current and well informed.

FREE British Wrestling ‘Strength and Conditioning for Wrestling’ CPD Workshop
Going with the theme, British Wrestling will be hosting a free CPD workshop for our membership base covering the application of weightlifting, the techniques and its benefits to wrestling and sport in general. To book onto your free spot please log into your British Wrestling membership portal and book your spot there. This will be a NGB certified workshop and will be supplied upon completion. There will be limited places for the workshop so it will be operated on a first come first served basis. If you have any questions please contact us at clubdevelopment@britishwrestling.org.
FREE ClubMatter’s Workshops
Club Matters workshops are short training sessions, funded by Sport England and delivered across the country by Club Matters facilitators in a range of specific topics. The sessions will develop your skills, improve your knowledge and ultimately help you develop your club. They are for groups of at least 4 clubs and build upon the content of the online resources, but also include case studies, topical issues, exercises and a discussion section.
Clubmatters: “During this challenging time for our clubs and workforce, it is really important that we continue to gain ongoing support and training. We are therefore delighted to be able to offer the suite of Club Matters workshops through virtual classroom sessions. These workshops will continue to be 2 hours long”.
