SPORT COACHING Level 2

Connected with our sport coaching pathway, it allows students to continue to use their passion for sport in an environment that is related to sports coaching and increasing participation in physical activity. This course combines practical learning and industry experiences to prepare learner’s with the skills and knowledge alongside opportunities to directly engage with employers such as sports clubs, primary schools and coaching organisations.
All while continuing to participate in a high quality football or sport development environment with highly experienced coaches.
