Coaching Certification as a Fighter

[southpawed]

I'm a certified level one official, certified coach as well as a boxer. I recommend it to any boxer. The more time in the ring the better. The judging and reffing has really helped me figure out what works and what doesn't. Reffing is the best seat in the house to pick up other guys' tricks and stuff.

so how would you even go about taking these classes? Or is it something your trainer will guide you through if you just ask?

I don't know where you are located but in the states you have to take a clinic from a certified level 2 official. If you contact your LBC president they would know who the person is that can give the clinics. Then you have to pass the test, which is pretty easy, especially if you already know the rules.
Most times the clinics are given the day of an event since everyone is gathered in the same town on that day. There is a fee for a background check as well and then you are issued a passbook similar to the one you have for competing.

I see.. So this would be actual certification to be a coach at any boxing gym and allow you to be cornerman at comps? Interesting..I wouldnt mind coaching boxing.

There's no background check here....
You should see some of the "reformed" characters that coach here.

Funnily its harder to qualifiy as an Amatuer than a Pro Trainer a lot harder.

[iceman]

i suspect thats because in amateur, its a direct feeder to the olypica where pro is a feeder to the mob...

I keep thinking you are in Colorado. They are close though, right? Lots of mountains and wide open spaces and such?

I have a question for you or anyone else who may know. After level one, what is required to gain level 2 and so on, and what is learned with it, or its benefits. I think I read too that for the level 1 you need to be active and do some things to keep it, plus to move on. Any ideas what that might be?

Becoming a trainer could be cool down the line if you ever want to own your own gym. So its a good idea to start learning now.

I don't know what the rules are in Canada but here, for a level two you have to have officiated at a regional tournament and have been a level one for two years.

...and yes MT and Colorado are similar. But still a good 12-15 hour drive.
