Coaching & Education
North Stars Baseball Club (NSBC) recognizes that player development and baseball enjoyment is directly related to coaching competency. Better coaching is often the difference between a player enjoying the sport and developing their baseball skills or not progressing. When players have an enjoyable time, they are more engaged and naturally gain more advanced skills. For these reasons, NBC has instituted a Coaches Continuing Education (CCE) plan with 3 main goals:
- Provide coaches with teaching techniques, learning styles, examples, and drills;
- Improve the baseball and teaching skills of coaches and Players;
- Increase coach and player retention;
CCE requirements apply to all managers, coaches, assistant coaches, etc., participating on any NSBC team. Training is required annually, to be completed by June 1st, and includes an online component with additional in person (classroom/field) training when applicable. The location changes from class to class when offered, see NSBC website for current information and current schedule of classes.
From time to time, and as warranted, NSBC may offer a supplemental CCE in person course to further drive home the concepts and strategies that we feel make a successful coaching experience. When these in person classes are offered, information will be communicate through all major communication lines at IBL’s disposal.
