do i need a certificate to become a traditional cheer coach
Answers. Relevance. Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: to be a cheer coach you need to have all the state required safety certifications. to become an high school coach you usually need someone with a college degree of some type and a district employee (either a teacher or a sub normally) to be the supervisor.f you need any other health certifications the school will let you know and you can usually get them done for free or practically nothing at a local red cross. Prior knowledge in cheerleading is obvious though lol. Source(s): talked to coach about being a coach 3 years ago when I was a senior. Mrs. Fox.
