Badminton Europe is glad to inform you that we will organise another BWF / BEC Level 1 Tutor’s Course. For the first time the course is also open to tutors / coaches who work with Para-badminton players / coaches. The course is organised in close cooperation with Badminton Sweden.

The objectives of BWF / BEC Level 1 Coach Education courses are:

Prerequisites for participants:

• Must be, or prior to the course become, familiar with BWF Coach

Member Associations who are not familiar with the BWF Coach Education resources should get in touch with BWF to receive all the resources and go through them before the start of the course.
