Level I Coaches Course Concludes in Santo Domingo

 

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic, November 2, 2018 – The Level I International Coaches Course held at the NORCECA/FIVB Regional Development Center in the Dominican Republic concluded successfully on Friday.

 

Eighteen coaches hailing from Curacao, Bahamas, St Lucia, United States, Belize, Aruba and U.S. Virgin Islands spent five days in Santo Domingo receiving practice and theoretical lessons from FIVB Instructors Francisco Cruz of Cuba and Juan Cartagena of Puerto Rico.

 

The certificates of approval of the Level I Course were presented by Cristobal Marte Hoffiz, President of NORCECA Confederation and First Executive Vice President of FIVB during a ceremony held in the main classroom of the Development Center.

 

Marte Hoffiz thanked the instructors Cruz and Cartagena for their dedication to teaching the game and expressed his satisfaction for the participation of the new coaches who are dedicated to teaching the basics of volleyball in their respective countries.

 

“You are one of the pillars of the game as you are the ones who train the players at their tender age when playing the sport properly is more important than winning,” Marte Hoffiz said.
