Coach Support Events

Our coach support events aim to provide coaches with the support and knowledge to make them the best coaches they can be. Each of our events has its own specific focus such as technical components, the FA's 4 corner model or specialist events. 

Here at the County FA, we acknowledge that changes to coach education have left coaches without face to face support. We want to invest our time and resources into filling this void to support the people that keep grassroots football going. 

FAQ

Coach support sessions are free workshops designed to help develop grassroots coaches knowledge and understanding of:

  • Principles of play
  • The FA's 4 corner model
  • New practice and session ideas
  • Understand how to develop players

All Coach Support Workshops include practical coach observations of sessions delivered by England Football Coach Educators or professional coaches.
