The Coaching Workforce Panel is a new, innovative idea which will involve a panel of coaches helping to structure and build on the current and future Coach Education Programme in Leicestershire and Rutland.

Our goal is to engage and retain as many coaches as possible in Leicestershire and Rutland by offering innovative and relevant development opportunities and support through coach education and continual professional development.

Our current Coach Education Programme is getting bigger and expanding into levels we haven’t experienced before, but it’s important that we still offer and deliver an improved level of service to our coaches through a coach centric programme.

To help us do this we need your views and input around coach education to ensure everything we deliver is relevant, innovative and suits the county’s needs.

We ask that applicants are:

•    Currently coaching
•    At least 16 years of age
•    At least an FA Level 1 Award in Coaching Football
•    Coaching within Leicestershire and Rutland

Applications close on Friday 15 September and all applicants will be contacted by Friday 22 September.
