Coaching Week 2018 is Here!

Coaching Week runs from 4-10 June 2018 and aims to celebrate great coaching across the nation. Coaching Week provides an annual platform for the general public to understand what great coaching is and to empower everyone who is receiving coaching to celebrate and recognize the people who coach them.

To mark Coaching Week, UK Coaching is inviting people across the UK to share when and where they have experienced great coaching.

UK Coaching has unveiled UK Coaching's Principles of Great Coaching, aimed to help people recognise great coaching. UK Coaching's Principles of Great Coaching are based on the acronym PEOPLE:

1. Person-centred

2. Empowering

3. Organised

4. Positive

5. Learning

6. Engaging

Many people benefit from great coaching across the UK each year. This is a great foundation to you understand what to look for in a great coaching experience, which is why UK Coaching created the Principles of Great Coaching. Great coaching meets our motivations and utilises sport and physical activity to benefit and transform our lives. Coaching is all about PEOPLE.

UK Coaching research from 2017 showed that over 9 million adults in the UK received coaching over the previous 12 months with a broad range of benefits delivered to recipients.

Coaching 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 wellbeing, as well as contribute to their individual, economic and social development.

We will be celebrating #GreatCoaching throughout the week so stay tuned for content pumped around the principles throughout our social media channels!
