Foundation Degree Sports Coaching and Development

The Foundation Degree in Sports Coaching and Development provides the opportunity to gain an industry-recognised qualification and relevant work experience while being affiliated to an organisation in the sector. To study this degree you will need a formalised affiliation with a professional sports club under the EFLT banner, Wigan Warriors Rugby League Club or Cardiff Blues. Your lectures will be produced by USW staff, but you will watch these remotely at your club's learning environment. A member of staff from this club would be assigned to you as a Mentor and they would support you by facilitating the learning materials and organising your placements. A key part of this degree is the increased amount of placement hours you will experience. You will undertake 4-8 hours per week in year 1 and 7-14 hours per week in year 2, which will be organised by your Mentor and could be in settings such as schools, local clubs, community settings or in formal club events. This will give you practical experience of working within the sports coaching and development industry. Plus, you will gain an understanding of the varied nature of sports coaching and development, from grassroots community projects that engage people to take up sport and/or physical activity to working with elite athletes who are at the top of their game.

The Foundation Degree Sports Coaching and Development will prepare you to work in a multitude of sports coaching, teaching and development roles, instilling the coaching, leadership and development skills that will allow you to change lives through sport. Graduates with a Foundation Degree in Sports Coaching and Development can go on to work as sports development officers, Workforce and coach education coordinators, school sport coordinators, 5x60 officers, National Governing Body officers, PE teachers (primary and secondary), community coaches and self-employed business managers.
