Accelerated Support to GoverningBodies of Sport: Participant andCoach Development

We are accelerating work with governing bodies across the industry to improve our offer to all sports and help your coaches make a difference where it matters.

Participant and Coach DevelopmentParticipants have differing wants and needs when taking part in sport, including performanceobjectives, enjoyment and personal development. Using intelligence on current and future participantmarkets to shape the development of coaches ensures participants receive coaching in a way thatmeets their wants and needs. This will result in enhanced growth, satisfaction and performance in your sport.

sports coach UK has pioneered an approach called participant development modelling that will helpyou develop a better understanding of participant wants and needs. In turn, coach developmentmodelling uses the participant intelligence to inform and support coaching interventions. We helpsports apply the modelling process and make the right links between participant and coach.
