TRAINING AND COACHING

International Pole Sport Federation (IPSF) endorsed registration is considered the mark of professionalism within the pole sports industry; it differentiates you from someone with little or no training.

​

Being IPSF registered means:

• Meeting the agreed industry standards which describe the knowledge, competence and skills of good practice

• Holding recognized and approved qualifications

• Being competent in the area of expertise

• Being committed to ongoing professional development

Through gaining the relevant, credible qualifications, IPSF registration provides assurance and confidence that all IPSF registered professionals have the knowledge, competence and skills to perform specific roles.

IPSF registered Code of Points candidates and coaches are eligible to apply for WPSC Coach status and accompany athletes throughout the championships.

​

The IPSF Certificate provides a recognised stamp of quality coaching across pole sport across the world. 

​

The IPSF has raised the profile of pole sports coaching and judges training by establishing best practice coaching standards.  We now have an internationally recognized framework of qualifications for coach and judge education developed and endorsed by the International Pole Sports Federation (IPSF).

 
The introduction of IPSF Certificate has shifted the culture of coaching in the pole sports world.  A balance has been created between the traditional pole ‘what to coach’ skills (mainly focusing on the technical aspects of pole) with greater emphasis on ‘how to coach’ skills (e.g. better two way communication, an understanding of different coaching and learning styles, continually reviewing, adapting and improving coaching sessions) leading to well planned effective coaching.
