South West Coaching

sportscotland is working with partners to establish six regional sporting partnerships across the country. This regional way of working is designed to link national programmes with local delivery, and provides a platform for partners (local authorities, governing bodies of sport and other organisations) to work together to achieve more than they could individually.

This application has been developed in a partnership approach between Dumfries and Galloway, East Ayrshire, South Ayrshire, and North Ayrshire Councils/KA Leisure and other organisations in order to provide an overview of coach education opportunities within the region.

About sportscotland

sportscotland is the national agency for sport in Scotland. We are driven by a passion for sport and our belief that sport has the power to enrich and enhance Scotland, its people and communities.  Our vision is a Scotland where sport is a way of life and our focus is a sustainable world class sporting system for Scotland that meets the needs of people and athletes. Our programmes and how we join up through people, places and partnerships are the pivotal components of this system.

sportscotland has worked with partners to develop a framework for coaching in Scotland, Coaching Scotland 2011-15 which will provide a reference point to our priority areas and our commitment to coaching over the next few years.
