Clubs:
Have you got a group of coaches who have their Level 1 / Introduction to Coaching Football or FA Level 2 / UEFA C qualifications, and would you like them to receive further support to enhance their knowledge... then this is for you.
Coaches:
Would you like the opportunity to add to and complement your existing information and knowledge and be better prepared for the next stage of your coaching journey, adding additional tools to your toolbox... then this is for you.
In House:
This could be hosted at your club, or you could be a hub and host workshops with other club coaches attending the event.
There is also an option for having online workshops, if this sometimes preferred, or a mixture of both.
