British Gymnastics are set to pilot a new High Performance Coach Development Programme that will provide coaches with the necessary resources to maximize potential and achieve significant results on the International stage.
Targeted at existing High Performance coaches identified and endorsed by Head Coaches or Head of Disciplines, the UK Sport approved pilot scheme, which will begin in April, will see an intake of 8 coaches across 5 disciplines take part in the programme led by Adrian Stan - High Performance Coach Development Manager.
The programme aims to implement a behaviour based coaching model and adopt the “athlete-centred-coaching” philosophy with UK Sports Olympic mission priorities at its heart. Coaches will be taught to incorporate best practices from a range of disciplines and challenge current practice to provide a platform to experiment and innovate.
