Derbyshire Sport Coach Bursary Fund

The aim of the Coach Bursary Fund is to encourage and support the personal and professional development of coaches working in Derbyshire through subsidising the costs of coach education.

Priority will be given to coaches who:

1) are coaching in Derbyshire
2) are:
       a) Community Sport Coaches
       b) Coaching on a school-club link project
      c) Involved with Step into Sport
       d) Coaching within voluntary sector clubs

Coaches will be able to apply for a maximum of 50% of the total cost or £200, whichever is the lowest figure.

Priority will be given to coaches who meet the criteria above and who are from under represented groups in coaching: women, black and ethnic minorities, disabled people and unemployed.

The Coach Bursary Fund will only form Coach Education taking place during the current round or in the near future. We will not fund courses already completed.

Payment will usually be made after the course has been completed. Costs will be reimbursed upon the production of receipts.
