The Level 1 Community Athletics Coach Course focuses on developing the coach's human management skills and understanding of physical literacy and how it can be improved based on the 'Teaching Games for Understanding' model of sports development.

This course instructs coaches how to follow the Teaching Games for Understanding model, especially its athlete-centred pedagogy, and introduces the most critical components of developing physical literacy in beginning athletes to prepare them for future Track & Field success, which must be understood before event-specific coaching can be developed.
