This UK Coaching Week, UK Coaching is celebrating the transformative power of coaching with the theme #PassItOn, encouraging coaches, organisations, and the public to share the wisdom and experiences that has changed lives.
Running from the 2nd to the 8th of June, the awareness week shines a light on the unique impact coaches have on individuals, teams, and communities across the UK.
Coaches play a pivotal role in shaping lives, not just through sport and physical activity, but by providing life-changing support and guidance that builds confidence, resilience, and strength. This year, UK Coaching is inviting participants, athletes, coaches, and anyone who has been positively influenced by coaching to reflect on and share the experience that has made the greatest impact on their journey. Whether it’s a piece of guidance that boosted confidence, a word of encouragement that ignited passion, or a lesson that shaped a career, coaching is about more than performance, it’s about people.
Throughout UK Coaching Week, UK Coaching is encouraging everyone to share their stories of great coaching that has left a lasting impact, embracing the theme #PassItOn.
As UK Coaching Week unfolds, UK Coaching encourages coaches to embrace a holistic approach, supporting each individual as they grow in both sport and life. Coaching nurtures resilience, leadership, teamwork, and decision-making, empowering people to thrive in all aspects of life.
Reflecting on the significance of coaching, UK Coaching CEO, Mark Gannon, said:
“Coaches shape not only athletes and participants but entire communities. This UK Coaching Week, we want to celebrate the support and guidance that coaches pass on every day. By sharing these stories, we inspire others to #PassItOn and continue the cycle of growth and learning. Recognising the extraordinary work coaches do in developing not only athletic skills but life skills is crucial. Let’s come together to inspire the next generation of coaches.”
