National Level Coaching
Courses Offered at Laurentian University
By Paul de la Riva
NEWS RELEASE / LAURENTIAN UNIVERSITY
November 8, 2004
National level coaching courses offered at Laurentian
University
The National Coaching Institute of Ontario (NCIO) will be offering
National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP) Level 4 courses
(tasks 7 and 8) at Laurentian University from Friday, December
3, to Sunday, December 5. The December 3rd session will be offered
in the evening, whereas the December 4-5 sessions will run during
the day. These courses combine sport psychology to manage elite
athletes, and sport psychology tactics for elite coaching.
All coaches aspiring to lead athletes at the international
level such as the Olympic and Pan American Games and World Championships
must be fully certified Level 4 coaches. It is the second such
initiative, and it is intended to produce higher level coaches
within the Near North, with the ultimate intent of producing
a greater number of successful international and professional
athletes from our outlying communities.
Both courses will be presented and facilitated by Dr. Robert
Schinke, sports psychology professor at Laurentian University.
He was psychologist on Canada's Boxing Team for the 2002 Commonwealth
Games and 2003 Pan American Games and has worked at all major
games, including the Olympics. Dr. Schinke is involved as a
Canadian Mental Training Registered motivational consultant
with national teams and professional sport affiliates. A former
international equestrian event rider, Dr. Schinke competed at
several major competitions such as the World Cup and earned
a silver medal at the 1987 Pan American Games.
All Northern Ontario fully certified NCCP Level 3 coaches and
those pursuing courses at the Level 4 are invited to register
and benefit from this educational and professional development
opportunity. During this weekend, the NCIO will offer a course
on psychological preparation for coaches (Task 7) and a course
on psychological preparation for athletes (Task 8). Topics such
as stress management and awareness, self confidence and resilience
will be covered. Coaches will be trained to perform and guide
athlete under stressful conditions.
This certification program is expected to interest NCCP Level
3 and 4 coaches involved at the university and college level,
in junior hockey leagues, as well as those coaching in other
regional or provincial associations. It is expected that if
Northern Ontario coaches manifest sufficient interest, an ongoing
certification program could be developed and offered in Sudbury.
The registration cost is $300 for both tasks. For more information
on the NCCP Level 4 program, please refer to Coaching Association
of Canada's website at www.coach.ca
or contact or Mr. Andy Higgins, Director of the National Coaching
Institute Ontario, at (416) 426-7246 or ahiggins@cscontario.ca
.
For more information, please call Dr. Robert Schinke, sports
psychology professor at Laurentian University, at (705) 675-1151,
ext. 1045 or rschinke@laurentian.ca.

CIS Cross-Country
Running Championships,
Guelph Lakes Golf Course, November 13th, 2004
The Laurentian Women's cross-country running team placed
13th at the CIS Championships this weekend in Guelph.
Leila Angrand finished 41st with a time of
18:57 over the 5km course. She was followed by rookie Kirsti
Dolson, in 18:59, Alicia Kaye, 77nd in 19:36, rookie Jennie
Oliver, 106th, 20:55, Melanie Muise, 108th in 20:59, and
rookie Marnie Smith, 112th in 21:13.
"Leila had some bad luck." said Rickey Goudreau,
the squad's massage therapist. "She made a mis-step
at the 1km mark, took a major jolt and actually popped a
rib. I'm amazed she was able to finish the race."
"Aside from Leila's injury, it was a great way to finish
the season," said head coach, Dick Moss. "The
girls had their best race of the year and every runner gave
absolutely everything they had. We beat a team that was
ahead of us at the OUA's and another that has been top-ten-ranked
for most of the season."
"I was hoping to finish in the 12-15 range, so 13th
was a solid result for us."
