Coaching Week: 4-10 June

To mark Coaching Week, UK Coaching is inviting people across the UK to share when and where they have experienced great coaching. To help people know what they are looking for, UK Coaching is currently working with agencies to develop our Principles of Great Coaching, aimed to help define great coaching. These principles will help people recognise and understand great coaching.

So what's going on in Coaching Week?

Coaching Week will see great coaching celebrated across the nation, with UK Coaching working alongside a range of partners and national governing bodies of sport.

• The key principles of Great Coaching will be unveiled on the 4th June to help you identify what makes a great coach.
• The week provides an annual platform to empower athletes and coaches to celebrate their community.
• The week also aims to highlight the broader benefits of coaching and the fact that great coaching can inspire others and make a difference to people's mental and physical well-being, as well as contribute to individual, economic and social development.
• Each day we will be highlighting great coaching stories as we bring to life what great coaching is and how it continues to benefit others… and we want you to join us.
