**Be advised:
*If a coach already (previously to 2017) ascertained his/her Coach 2 or Hybrid certification they are able to coach Prenovice and Novice. New to coaching coaches (one starting this year) will require Coach 1 (Intro to Coaching) to coach Prenovice and Novice.
*Head Coaches of Atom to Midget House or Rep, require Checking Clinic Certification. If they have taken the new Coach 2 clinic they will be fine as Checking Certification is now covered in that course. If a coach only has the Hybrid or Dev 1 courses, they will require the Checking Clinic.
