We're immensely excited to celebrate National Apprenticeship Week (5th-11th February), recognising and applauding the young individuals who, through their efforts and commitment, embody the future of our sports community.
Over the next 7 weeks, we're shining a light on the passion, dedication, resilience, and potential exhibited by our apprentices and their employers.
Our apprentices are not just young coaches in training; they are the moulders of the future generation of athletes, the champions of inclusivity, and the carriers of our shared sporting ethos. Their journey in learning and adapting to the dynamic world of sports is truly inspiring and worth celebrating.
This year, we are celebrating 'Apprentice of the Year' and 'Apprentice with Promise'
As part of our celebrations, we're thrilled to announce voting is now open for our annual 'Apprentice of the Year' and 'Apprentice with Promise' awards. These awards are a chance for us to honour the apprentices who have shown exceptional talent, growth, potential and commitment throughout their journey with us.
💫 Apprentice of the Year: This award recognises an apprentice, who has either completed or nearly finished their apprenticeship, and has shown exceptional effort, determination, and improvement in their sports coaching journey.
💫 Apprentice with Promise: This award highlights a promising apprentice who has shown substantial potential for growth and has already made significant strides in their path to becoming a sports coach.
