Class determines the base buff of a coach and the buffs they can unlock. **The higher the Class, the more powerful the buffs** and the greater impact the coach has on their team.

A coach may unlock and stack more buffs by earning [Reef Points](https://ocean-racing-league.gitbook.io/the-ocean-racing-league/ocean-racing-league/coach-buffs/prestige/reef-points) to level up [Prestige](https://ocean-racing-league.gitbook.io/the-ocean-racing-league/ocean-racing-league/coach-buffs/prestige). When a Coach reaches the maximum Prestige level for their class they become eligible for [Promotion](https://ocean-racing-league.gitbook.io/the-ocean-racing-league/ocean-racing-league/coach-buffs/class/promotion) to the next class level.<br>
