  • develop new coaches and leaders by enhancing links with schools and local sports clubs
  • actively recruit potential coaches, volunteers and officials into sport
  • raise the profile of volunteering in sport within East Dunbartonshire

Education for Club Leaders

Education for Club Leaders is a training programme which combines club development outcomes with a community impact approach.

Four interactive, SCQF / SVQ accredited, modules are designed to develop an understanding of the key areas of club leadership.

  • Sports Club Leadership
  • Effective Communication
  • Planning & Development
  • Learning & Evaluation

Training is flexible and adapted to suit the needs of the group.

  • The club leader programme is designed for club mangers, chair persons, parents, and volunteers interested in developing their knowledge of running a club. This includes delivering club development targets and outcomes and understanding the developmental value of sport and community activity.

  • Young leaders who are newer to club development and coaching and want to develop their skills and confidence in effective planning and developing in a supportive and engaging environment.
