Refresher training courses

Summary

JFA thinks that self- improvement is as important as the acquirement of coach qualification for the improvement of coaches level. We hope you will not participate to the refresher training course "only because it is necessary in order to renew the qualification", and we hope that through this refresher training course, you can acquire new knowledge and information that can be put into practice in coaching.
