Information for UKU Registered Coaches
Congratulations on becoming a UKU Registered Coach
The UKU Coach Register is an important part of putting coaching at the center of the development of Ultimate, promoting high standards and a safe environment for everyone.
This page includes resources and information for coaches.
When you become a UKU Registered Coach you agree to adhere to the UKU coaches code of conduct.
Risk assessment templates
Keep records of your risk assessments. Risk assessments should be used for the venues you use and for your session planning. You can use these templates as a starting point. When you open this template you will need to save your own copy before you can make edits.
Incident reporting form
As a registered coach you must complete an incident report form and send a copy to UKU if any of the following occur:
Fatalities
Injury involving referral to or actual hospital treatment
Head injuries
Allegations of professional negligence arising from tuition, coaching or advice
Circumstances involving damage to third party property
Keep your membership profile up-to-date
As a registered coach it is important that your membership profile is kept up-to-date. Your membership profile should include:
Current contact details
Current clubs
Coaching qualifications
DBS (if applicable)
Safeguarding training certificate (if applicable)
Frist Aid certificate (if applicable)
UKU Coaches code of conduct
WFDF Rules Accreditation certificate
Safeguarding, welfare and DBS
Please take a look at our safeguarding pages. Safeguarding trainings is an essential part of keeping everyone safe (including coaches!). For training options take a look at the CPSU (the Child Protection in Sport Unit) and Ann Craft Trust (adult safeguarding). If you need a DBS, UKU can administer this for you.
Those employing a coach (whether paid or on a voluntary basis) are responsible for ensuring the coach is properly set up and registered. Some inexperienced in working with sports coaches might need the coach to explain the requirements.
