BREAKING NEWS🇦🇺
The Australian Sambo Federation, in partnership with the Victoria State Sambo Federation and Melbourne Sambo Academy, successfully conducted a National Sambo Coaches Course at the Melbourne Sambo Academy training facility.
As a result of this program, three new nationally accredited Sambo coaches have been trained and are now prepared to contribute to the continued growth and development of Sambo across Australia.
One of the highlights of the course was the comprehensive training provided in all three disciplines of Sambo: Sport Sambo, Combat Sambo, and Beach Sambo. Participants received detailed instruction in the rules, techniques, coaching methodology, and practical application of each discipline, followed by formal assessments.
In addition, the course included a dedicated module on Sambo for visually impaired athletes, covering competition rules, coaching principles, athlete development, and best practices for working with athletes with disabilities. This reflects the Federation’s ongoing commitment to inclusivity and the growth of adaptive Sambo programs in Australia.
We would like to congratulate all newly qualified coaches and wish them every success in their future coaching careers.
The Australian Sambo community continues to grow stronger every year, with dedicated coaches, athletes, referees, and volunteers helping to build the future of our sport.
If you are interested in becoming part of the Sambo family and learning one of the world’s most complete combat sports systems, our doors are always open.
