Coach Registration Scheme - Ready To Go!

As part of the wider UKU Coaching Scheme, we have developed a scheme which allows people to formally register as a coach. This is designed for people who have attended one of the UKU coaching courses and are involved in coaching, beyond informally at their club. More details of who should register can be found on the pages of the scheme.

Consultation on Mixed & Women's Nationals 2012 and beyond...

Jim HancoxA note from Jim Hancox, UKU Mixed Coordinator:

Over the past ten years, we have always struggled to find the right place in the season for Mixed Nationals.  The Competitions Committee has come up with a potential new approach (see below) - but please note we would like feedback on this IDEA before making the final decision.  And in particular please note that there is big knock-on impact to Women's Nationals too.

Based on the poll-responses received so far we decided to provide some additional information on some of the common questions/comments - but please read the proposal and poll first if you have not done so already.
