Does anyone think there is still room for independent thinking coaching kids or is the uniformity of coaching the way to go? Because some one has done foundation and coching levels does that instantly make them a better coach than some one who hasn't? If a club wants to attract kids it might play up that they have 'qualified' coaches as in those who have done the courses of the Association so if for some reason some one has been coaching for quite a while but has never done the courses for whatever reason should they be looked upon as a coach of lesser ability.
