Coach and instructor bursary

Are you fed up with watching your children or friends from the side lines?

Are you no longer able to take part in the sport or physical activity you love but would still like to be involved?

Have you thought about becoming a coach or instructor?  The Go4Life Coach and Instructor Bursary can help you gain a formal qualification.

The aim of the bursary is to support deliverers who may not have any formal coaching qualifications or who, as part of their continual professional development, want to attend additional physical activity or coaching courses.

Funding is available to cover either 100% or 50% of the overall course fee, depending on the cost of the course.  In return for the support received deliverers have to commit one voluntary hour per £10 in funding they access to the North Somerset Coaching Programme.

Awards will be made on a bi-monthly basis or until the funding runs out and priority will go to candidates who can meet the following criteria:-

  • currently delivering in a sports or physical activity environment
  • currently delivering within North Somerset
  • currently delivering on a weekly basis
  • can contribute significantly to the aims of the funding.
