The Community Sports Foundation is on the lookout for new apprentices to join our programme for aspiring coaches.
The Coach Apprentice programme, developed in partnership with our training partner Sport Structures, is entering its second year and gives 17-20 year olds the chance to immerse themselves in the world of sports coaching.
As well as gaining experience and developing coaching skills in live environments, apprentices work towards a number of industry-relevant qualifications including the PE & School Sport Level 3 Award.
The apprentices will be enlisted on a one-year programme, which starts again in August 2019.
Apprentices receive a weekly salary in line with the national apprentice wage for 30 hours of work, and enjoy a host of additional benefits and incentives.
Applications have now closed, but if you wish to find out more about the programme please email [email protected]
