Over 100 mentors from all over the country are expected to join the Level 2 of online lectures for Badminton and Lawn Tennis via Zoom, from March 24 to 26, led by the agency’s Philippine Sports Institute (PSI).

“We want to continue building on the momentum we had last year with these coaches and elevate their learning and mastery of coaching in their specific sport,” Abby Rivera, PSI Grassroots Program head, said.

This is the third leg of the NSCCC which started from its first course on Sport-Specific Training for Table Tennis Level 1 and Sports Science Lectures Level 2 on

February 24 to 26 and March 17 to 19, respectively, with almost 200 coaches in attendance.

“More than half of the attendees also signed up for the optional examination where they are entitled to receive certificates,” Rivera added.

After the three courses, the

PSI will continue another set of topics and lectures for Sports Science Level 1 until April 28, to be conducted by Prof. Henry Daut for Sports Management, UP CHK Dean Francis Carlos Diaz for Training Program Design and Development, Karen Leslie Pineda, Ashly

Villa and Jane Serapion for Sports Nutrition; Dr. Arsenio Lantin and Dr. Victor Francis Gaddi for Sports Sports Injury and Rehabilitation, Mary Jane Santos for Sports Massage and Marc Donyell Bayang for Strength and Conditioning.
