Accredited Running Coaches

Serpentine has a large membership and a very few hard-working, unpaid running coaches who have earned accreditation from our sport's governing body – UK Athletics. More coaches are always welcome. See the UK Athletics website and our volunteering section to find out what is involved in becoming a coach. The club can provide financial assistance towards the cost of coaching courses. Contact the committee training coordinator for more information.
