Coach Education

Welcome to the Flying High Coach Education Section. This section provides courses and workshops which are both generic coaching certificates and sport specific awards. Many of the courses are required by coaches to work or to complete further qualifications.

The Coach Education Programme is an initiative aimed at improving both the number and quality of sports coaches. The programme is suitable for anyone interested in sports coaching and running sports
organisations. You do not need to be an experienced sports person to get into coaching, commitment and enthusiasm are more important. Some of the courses in this programme do not even require you to have experience of playing the sport.


If you are a club player, casual player, a volunteer, a parent or teacher, or if you work with young people and would like to be involved in sports coaching, then this programme will help you to take the first step on the coaching ladder. If you are already involved and hold some kind of qualification, the Coach Education Programme offers other higher level awards for you to upgrade your coaching qualifications.
