Sport England Funding for West Midlands Regional Coach Mentoring Programme |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The West Midlands Regional Coach Mentoring programme has recently been awarded £7,798 to
After the success of the 2008 West Midlands Regional Coach Mentoring Programme, the West Midland FA Girls' and Women’s Football Development Officers and the FA were keen to continue the work that had taken place to support 15 female football coaches to achieve their FA Level 2.
The programme, which is supported by national and regional FA staff, County FA Football Development teams and local Charter Standard Clubs, aims to identify coach mentees from the 5 Counties within the West Midlands who are looking to gain additional support and guidance with completing the course. Each coach mentee is assigned a mentor who works with them along every step of the journey to completing the Level 2 course.
The programme starts around 6 months in advance of the Level 2 course taking place, providing workshops, meetings and support within the coach’s club to help work toward the course to ensure the coach is confident and as fully prepared as possible in preparation for the course. Once the training part of the course is completed, the coach then continues to receive support every step of the way through to completing the course assessments.
With the gaining of the funding from Sport England, this will enable the West Midland County FA’s to deliver a comprehensive programme to support around 20 female coaches to complete their FA Level 2 throughout 2010.
Further information with regards to the programme will be available over the coming weeks, with details on how to apply to be a part of the programme and the relevant application forms for coaches and coach mentors soon to be released.
Should you require any details about the programme or to register your interest in Staffordshire, please contact Kevin Staples at the Staffordshire FA or visit www.staffordshirefa.com

During the month, a total of 46 goals were scored. Chasetown continue to remain unbeaten at the top of the table, with Norton Canes moving up into second place. All of the teams are progressing well, with some good performances being displayed every week.
In the County Cup, two of the teams in the League, Chasetown and Norton Canes, progressed into the Second Round, with Cheadle or Uttoxeter looking to join them once their first round match is able to be played.
