Bucks Sport Coach Bursary

Focus: Coaching
Funding Cycle: Continous - next closing date is 31/1/12

Due to an increased need to support coaches with attaining level 1 and 2 coaching qualifications, the Bucks Sport Coach Bursary Scheme will target coaches delivering sport across Bucks and/or Milton Keynes. The bursary will provide coaches with the opportunity to undertake a level 1 or 2 coaching qualification with a financial bursary made available to support those who successfully complete their course and deliver voluntary coaching hours in return.

The bursary will look to fund 75% of a coaching course, up to £150 for a level 1 and £200 for a level 2. So, if you are looking to develop your qualifications to actively coach within Buckinghamshire, this bursary is certainly for you!
