COACHES & TEAM MANAGERS

- LDMHA strongly suggests Coaches and support staff complete the module for Mental Health.

Mental health impacts the quality of life and performance of both sport participants and coaches.

The Coaching Association of Canada’s Mental Health in Sport eLearning module was developed to educate coaches about mental health to empower them to effectively play a role in supporting the well-being of the participants in their sport program, while also supporting their own mental health.

Please follow this link to complete the Mental Health In Sport Learning Module.
