WHY?

Quite simply, great coaching can transform lives.

As the heartbeat of our local communities, coaches serve as catalysts for positive change. They unlock the life-enhancing potential of sport and physical activity by offering a personcentered experience that is safe, engaging, caring, and rewarding.
But coaches are more than just instructors or trainers – they are mentors, motivators, role models, and confidants. They assist individuals of all ages, backgrounds and abilities in discovering, developing, and achieving their goals.
Behind many inspiring stories of personal development and improvements in physical, social, emotional, and mental well-being, you’ ll often find the guiding hand of a dedicated coach.
The UK Coaching Awards has been a platform for celebrating such coaches. Previous winners include renowned figures like FA children’ s coach Peter Sturgess, England Wheelchair Rugby League head coach Tom Coyd MBE, the“ genius” Lioness coach Sarina Wiegman, and UK Athletics’ longest-serving employed coach, Aston Moore.
With the support of our partners, UK Coaching can continue to shine a spotlight on upcoming and future achievers, while also cherishing those who have already excelled.
