Coach Development Events

Bringing coach development to you and your club

We are delighted to announce details of our Coach Development schedule for this year. All events are free of charge.

 CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL SCHEDULE

With the view of making the Coach Development programme accessible to as many local coaches as possible, the 2023/24 programme will aim to provide events in the East, Centre and West of the county with the intention of bringing coach development to you and your club. The majority of the events will be club-based events and therefore delivered in partnership with a local football club, using their club players. The Coach Development events will also cover different topics and welcome special guests from the FA, utilising their vastly experienced Regional Coach Developers as well  as working in partnership with Plymouth Argyle Football Club and their experienced Academy coaches. 

We have also recently created the Cornwall Female Coaches Community, allowing female coaches to network, share advice and support one another while attending coach development events as a group - the first of which will take place this June. If this is something you are interested in, please contact chloe.harris@cornwallfa.com

FAQs

Absolutely. The FA runs events all over the country and for all levels. To explore events please visit our national CPD events page here.

If you and your club would like to host an In-Service/ CPD Event this season please email us on the details above. 

If you're an FA Level 1 or 2 learner, continuous professional development hours are optional and so there is no longer a requirement for licensing .

If you're a UEFA qualified coach, however, you are required to complete 15 hours of CPD every three years to maintain your licence, which The FA recommends is best achieved by completing 5 hours per season
