The Level 1 Coaching Refresher Training is for all Level 1 Coaches who have completed their Level 1 more than three years ago.

This ensures that England Boxing-affiliated coaches’ training remains relevant and up to date.

Following Covid-19 lockdowns, courses are being run on an online basis, rather than face-to-face, as was the case previously, making it easier for people to attend.

Can I still coach as a Level 1 Coach without completing the Level 1 Coaching Refresher Training?
