Shuttle Time workshops consist of a 4 hour Online Delivery and a 4 hour On Court Delivery. No experience or knowledge of badminton is necessary.

Who is it for?

The NCCP Shuttle Time certification is for school teachers, recreation centre instructors or coaches, volunteers, parents and new or inexperienced coaches.  Even coaches who have many years of experience will find useful information in the program.
