Coach Development Programme 13

Join football coaches from around the world for an interactive, five-month journey of insight, growth, and connection.

From your own living room!

What’s Included:

💻 10 Expert-Led Webinar Materclasses
Across the programme, ten top coaches, analysts, and specialists deliver high-quality live sessions, sharing strategies and insight from across the game. 99% of sessions are recorded and shared with attendees for lifetime access.

📚 10 Coaching Books
Each masterclass is paired with a carefully chosen book that supports and deepens your learning on that week’s topic — giving you a personal coach development library by the end.

🤝 1:1 Networking & Learning Tasks
Following each session, you’ll be paired with a different coach to discuss, debate and reflect on the topic in a relaxed, coach-led way. Structured prompts are provided, but you decide how much or little to use them.
