England Lacrosse is delighted to once again support UK Coaching’s annual UK Coaching Week as they encourage people across the sporting landscape to thank the coaches who have left a lasting impact on their lives.
The 2024 theme of the annual celebration of UK Coaching, taking place from 29 April to 5 May, is “Holistic Coaching: Developing Skills For Life” and the organisation will be exploring the meaning of holistic coaching and the positive and profound impact it can have.
UK Coaching will also be encouraging the public and the sport and physical activity community to express their appreciation and gratitude towards coaches by telling them how they, their friends, or their family, have developed holistically under their care and support.
What is holistic coaching?
Holistic coaching is about developing the whole person.
It goes beyond sporting experience, serving as a key to unlocking potential and helping to shape individuals into well-rounded, successful, and resilient people, both on and off the field.
It transforms lives!
How can I get involved in UK Coaching Week?
For the Public
Think back to the times when a coach made a difference in your life. Was it a word of encouragement, a life lesson, or another memorable moment that stands out?
As we approach UK Coaching Week, we’d love for you to not only reflect on these moments but to let the world know about them too!
This is your opportunity to get creative and prepare a message that not only expresses your appreciation but also encourages others to join in with our #ThanksCoach celebration of coaches.
For Sports Clubs & Organisations
This is your moment to shine a spotlight on the stories about coaches within your community that highlight the power of coaching to transform lives and growth in all areas of people’s lives.
Inspire your members to join in this celebration of fantastic coaching by sharing their own experiences, and to express their gratitude by using #ThanksCoach.
Let’s collectively shine our brightest light on the profound influence coaches have in nurturing talent and shaping futures.
For Coaches
It’s time to reflect on your journey and the figures who’ve been pivotal in your coaching career. Use this opportunity to acknowledge a mentor or a peer who’s left a lasting mark on your life.
Sharing your story can inspire and uplift the entire coaching community, creating a ripple effect of gratitude and recognition that we know that coaches so richly deserve.
