Sports Coaching Apprenticeship

Through our Forever Sport programme, and working alongside our partner schools, you will play a vital role in helping children to fall in love with sport and enjoy being active. Outside of Forever Sport delivery, BSF offer education programmes, pupil mentoring, lunch clubs, after school clubs, sports festivals, community hubs and holiday camps. Each offer a safe and inclusive learning environment for children to learn, develop, and try a variety of sports in a relaxed setting. Coaches will deliver lunch clubs and after school clubs daily, whereas holiday camps take place in the school holidays and our community hubs take place on weekday evenings and at the weekend (basketball only).

This Apprenticeship Offering is in Partnership with Coach Core. Coach Core's vision is to drive social mobility through apprenticeships and sport, so that every young person can reach their true potential and inspire those around them. Since our launch in 2012, we have worked with over 150 of the biggest sports providers, youth clubs and charities in the country, supporting over 500 young people.
