Women in Coaching
Coaching is central to player development and to sports performance at all levels of competition, and coaches are key agents in ensuring a quality experience for existing and new participants in sport (National Sports Policy 2018 – 2027).
By working closely with the NGBs, LSPs and other stakeholder, Sport Ireland endeavours to broaden the coaching base to include more women from grassroots to high performance.
