CoachForce
CoachForce pulls together the power of sport organisations, community funding bodies and SPARC to give more New Zealanders a great coaching experience.
One of the first initiatives to come out of the NZ Coaching Strategy (pdf 5.3MB), CoachForce focuses on participation, enabling as many people as possible access to coaching services through the best local channel.
It is a nationally driven, regionally delivered programme involving SPARC, National Sport Organisations, Regional Sport Organisations, Regional Sports Trusts and funding partners such as community trusts and gaming trusts.
What are its aims?
The CoachForce programme aims to:
- Deliver more and better coaches, contributing to increased participation in organised sport at a community level.
- Encourage collaborative and strategic investment into sport between a range of partners.
- Provide a delivery mechanism for the New Zealand Coaching Strategy.
- Provide a developmental pathway for coaches.
SPARC has already increased investment in Regional Sports Trusts to support CoachForce, and is working to broker partnerships between National Sport Organisations and local funding bodies.
