The Junior Leadership Award introduces children to the skills required to become a professional martial arts coach. These include essential leadership skills such as confidence, aptitude, responsibility and discipline.
A three-step process to a recognised qualification
We offer three courses:
- Assistant Junior Leader
- Junior Leader
- Junior Instructor
By completing all three courses, candidates can progress through the WJJF senior qualifications which will ultimately lead to a Level 2 City & Guilds NVQ in coaching.
This award demonstrates that the coach has met the national standards set by the Sport and Recreation Industry.
Grades and Ages
For the Assistant Junior Leader Course, the required grade is Brown & White, which has a minimum age requirement of 9 years.
For the Junior Leaders Course, children can still be Brown & White belts, but there is a minimum age requirement of 10 years.
For the Junior Instructors Course, children must be 14 years of age and hold the grade of Black Belt.
