Coaching courses
Find the latest table tennis coaching courses and workshops, including first aid and safeguarding.
Work has begun on our new coaching strategy, which will focus on continual development of coaches rather than on the current qualification-based system.
No further courses will be arranged while work on the new strategy is ongoing.
You can read more about the new strategy here and visit our FAQs page.
We will communicate regularly with all coaches and the wider membership over the next year as the strategy takes shape.
