Support for coaches

Over the coming year, The Tennis Foundation will be working on a comprehensive range of resources and package of support, to assist coaches working within schools.

If you have any suggestions for the development of these resources, please contact us.

The Structure of School Sport:

England:

The Youth Sport Trust plays a central role in supporting the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) in the delivery of the PE & Sport Strategy for Young People.


Scotland

The Active Schools Network aims to develop and strengthen the network, who in turn coordinate activities that enthuse and develop our children to take part in physical activity and sport from an early age.


Wales:

The PE & Sport (PESS) and Dragon Sport Projects aim to raise standards in physical education.
