UEFA Equivalent C License (sanctioned by B.F.

A)

February 10-18, 2020 (part 1) & September 7-14, 2020 (part 2)

The Bermuda Football Coaches Association (BFCA) is pleased to offer their 8th Annual UEFA
Equivalent C License Course. This two-part course will be led by Jacques Crevoisier, along with
UEFA B License Coach Educators, and comprises classroom and on-field sessions, with individual
assessments held at the end of the course. The course is sanctioned by the Bermuda Football
Association (BFA).
During the last seven years over 200 coaches have obtained their C License through the BFCA.

Who is Jacques Crevoisier?

Jacques coached for the French Football Federation at
Clairefontaine, winning the under 18 European
Championship in 2000, and is a UEFA Senior Director
for the Technical Department. He was also the first
team coach at Liverpool FC from 2001 to 2003,
consulted for Sochaux, St. Etienne and Monaco and
provided psychology work at Arsenal and Tottenham
(he has a degree in sports psychology.) Jacques is a
regular match day commentator on English Premier
League and other top European games and a regular
public speaker.

Course objectives
This 40 hour course teaches participants the main principles of coaching – organizing and
effectively running group sessions, developing age specific training and analyzing training
sessions and matches. The course was designed using UEFA Licensing standards to create a
specific Bermuda certification. Those participants achieving a score of 80 in their assessment
will be considered as candidates to progress to the fully accredited UEFA B License, which is
delivered by the Scottish FA. Each candidate for the C license course will receive the Coaching
Handbook, three age specific coaching manuals.

Who is the C License course for?

The course is suitable for coaches with two or more years of experience, or have attained the
pre-requisite Intro to Coaching certificate. Candidates are encouraged to be in reasonable
physical condition and to be prepared to participate in drills being run by their fellow coaches.
Candidates who successfully complete the course will meet the licensing requirements of the
BFA, along with SCARS and First Aid / CPR training, and will be eligible to coach at the children’s
and youth football levels up to U17.

Costs

The BFCA underwrites some of the expenses of our courses to help keep access to coaching
education affordable for those who have a desire to become certified and gain more proficiency
with their standard of coaching. This is reflected in the low costs to the candidates:
UEFA C Equivalent Course
• BFCA Member (financial member for 2020) - $425
• Non-BFCA Member (includes 2020 membership fee) - $500

Coaches who need to retest in order to improve their score for admission to the UEFA B course,
must demonstrate they have been actively coaching for 12 months since they last completed
testing for the C license. Retest candidates must be current financial members and will be
required to pay a retest fee of $100. No new materials will be issued to retest candidates and
acceptance to a course will be subject to availability of space. Candidates wanting to retest
