international womens day

Two weeks ago, we ran a fantastic Women in Coaching session in honour of International Women’s Day, with both level 2 and level 3 female coaches. Tim Grimsey invited visitors from UK Coaching and Play Their Way to attend the event.

Tim said, I’m so proud of this group of young coaches and the way they put the children first, giving them a choice and a voice in how their sessions are run to make sure their experiences of sport are as enjoyable and as positive as they can be.

The girls are great at listening to the children and adapting what they do as a result of their feedback. It’s something that all coaches should be adopting, but I really believe that Play Their Way and child-first coaching can play a huge role in developing better pathways for girls in coaching.'
