🏃‍♂️Assisting runners and coaches within a club and community setting

LiRFs are not licensed athletics coaches and should avoid advertising themselves as 'running coaches' or offering services beyond the scope of the qualification.

Those wishing to coach athletes, deliver structured training programmes, or advertise coaching services are encouraged to progress through the Athletics NI Coaching pathway, including Coach in Running Fitness (CiRF) or Athletics Coach qualification.
