Exciting news

Hi everybody!

The 2021 season is over but we’re sure you all still have in your eyes all the stunning performance of this year’s summer.

To celebrate them, here at EACA we worked hard to make our members happy now it’s time to unroll a number of exciting news.

First, we cutted the price of the Pro membership from € 100,00 to € 60,00 per year.  Consequentially, we decided to withdraw the monthly subscription for both the Premium and Pro membership. This is because the yearly subscriptions’ prices are now both very affordable so there is no reason to offer monthly subscriptions.

But, hey: if you are a Premium or Pro member already and you don’t want to upgrade to a yearly subscription don’t worry: existing monthly membership will be still active.

But that’s not all, no way. 

The table below shows the announcements for each membership level.

We tried to make everybody happy, adding content and opportunities to all the members of any level.

So, we really hope that you will enjoy all these new things at EACA because something very big is coming next week: the 2021 International Festival of Athletics Coaching programme!

Stay tuned!

PS: Dr. Frans Bosch asked us to remove his presentation from IFAC 2012 but, don’t worry: we will replace it soon with another presentation from IFAC 2012!

“Mindful Coaching” Series Episode 2 with Laurent Meuwly and Paolo Camossi

The brand new EACA series “Mindful Coaching” aims to cover the world of coaching at 360° by interviewing coaches with different skills and experiences, also coming from other sports or other areas.

In the Episode 2 of of its first season, Jimson Lee hosts two European coahces: Laurent Meuwly and Paolo Camossi. At the recent European Indoor Championships they achieved great results, reaching the top in the 60 meters event, where Ajla Del Ponte and Marcell Jacobs won the gold medal for Switzerland and Italy, respectively. 

In perfect harmony with the spirit of the “Mindful Coaching” Series, Jimson especially tries to spotlight their approach to coaching rather than talk about which technical exercises they adopt during the training sessions.

We added a new main menù item to access to EACA Series:

Starting from this episode, the series will be accessible for the EACA members only, no matter if Free, Premium or Pro members, so if you are not registered already, choose your membership level and sign up!

Let me reminds you that, in order to celebrate our President’s 80th birthday, for the whole current month of May the yearly Pro Membership is 50% discounted FOR LIFE, meaning that those who will become a yearly Pro member this month will pay half the price every year, not only at the sign up but forever.
To get the 50% discount apply the code FRANK80 during the sign up process.

As always, we hope that you’ll really enjoy this new content. But we are only at the beginning: lots of ideas in our mind will be effective soon!

“Mindful Coaching” Series

"Mindful Coaching" Series

With a view to offering more and more services to member coaches, the European Athletics Coaches Association today inaugurates a series created with the collaboration of Jimson Lee, the creator of the SpeedEndurance.com website.
Neither Jimson nor his website needs any introduction and the EACA is proud to have him on board: it will be a key element in the development of the Association.

This brand new series “Mindful Coaching” aims to cover the world of coaching at 360° by interviewing coaches with different skills and experiences, also coming from other sports or other areas.

The first episode of the first season sees the EACA President Frank Dick OBE as guest, right after his 80th birthday. This episode’s title will be “Five decades of coaching” but, obviously, it’s impossibile to cover five decades in one hour only so we are planning to see Frank as guest in some other episode.

The series will be weekly or bi-weekly and it begins with an episode available for everyone, even non-EACA members. However, starting from the next episode, the series will be accessible for the EACA members only, no matter if Free, Premium or Pro members.

At this regards, let me reminds you that, in order to celebrate our President’s 80th birthday, for the whole current month of May the yearly Pro Membership is 50% discounted FOR LIFE, meaning that those who will become a yearly Pro member this month will pay half the price every year, not only at the sign up.
To get the 50% discount apply the code FRANK80 during the sign up process.

As always, we hope that you’ll really enjoy this new content. But we are only at the beginning: lots of ideas in our mind will be effective soon!
