Canada Basketball is promoting a fall 2026 series of NCCP Train to Compete workshops for coaches working with athletes in the later stages of competitive basketball development.
Train to Compete is part of Canada Basketball’s NCCP Competition Development pathway and is intended for coaches guiding competitive athletes who may be preparing for post-secondary, national team or other advanced basketball opportunities.
The fall schedule includes three separate modules: Planning, Skills and Strategies. Coaches must attend all sessions listed for the module they register for in order to complete that course series.
