Coach ForceCoachForce pulls together the power of relevant bodies to give more New Zealanders a great coaching experience. It is a nationally driven, regionally delivered programme involving Sport NZ, National Sport Organisations, Regional Sport Organisations, Regional Sports Trusts like Sport Manawatu and funding partners such as community trusts and gaming trusts.

Sport Manawatu, with funding support from Sport NZ, delivers CoachForce within the Manawatu, Tararua and Horowhenua regions. To ensure coach support continues to grow within these regions, Sport Manawatu is strengthening partnerships between National Sport Organisations and, in particularly, the Eastern and Central Community Trust.

Aims

The CoachForce programme aims to:

  1. Deliver more and better coaches, contributing to increased participation in organised sport at a community level.
  2. Encourage collaborative and strategic investment into sport between a range of partners.
  3. Provide a delivery mechanism for the New Zealand Coaching Strategy.
  4. Provide a developmental pathway for coaches.

CoachForce is one of the first initiatives to come out of the NZ Coaching Strategy. It focuses on participation by enabling as many people as possible to access coaching services through the best regional channels.

To help achieve the aims of Coachforce Sport Manawatu provides a range of resources, support and learning opportunities. Check out the links below or contact us for more information.
