At Ortona Gymnastics, we place great importance on our Pre-Coach in Training Program, recognizing it as a vital step in developing future leaders. Many of our current staff began their journey through this program, and we are proud to support our youth in their personal and professional growth.
Designed for Ortona members, this program is carefully structured to meet standards set by Alberta Labour for Underaged Employees, the National Coaching Certification Program (NCCP), and Ortona’s own internal policies and procedures.
The Pre-Coach in Training Program provides young participants with an invaluable opportunity to build leadership and life skills while gaining a deeper understanding of the responsibilities involved in coaching and working in a sports environment. While many participants view this program as a bridge between being an athlete and becoming staff, it is also a well-rounded developmental experience that prepares youth for success in a wide range of future roles—both within and beyond gymnastics.
Participation in this program does not guarantee future employment at Ortona. However, it does provide valuable training and experience that may be beneficial should an individual choose to apply for a position in the future.
Because the program runs during the school year, we prioritize balance. Academic performance, training demands, and overall well-being are key considerations. If schoolwork begins to suffer or participants feel overwhelmed, we encourage open communication with supervisors to find solutions that support both growth and balance.
