UK Coaching Awards 2016

Nominations now open

The UK Coaching Awards honour sports coaches and coaching organisations who have demonstrated outstanding success over the previous 12 months.

Hosted by sports coach UK, the showpiece event is seen as one of the most prestigious within the coaching community. Now in its 19th year, it raises the profile of coaches and the role they play in encouraging participation, performance and excellence. Previous winners include the most successful coaches from a wide variety of sports.

Awards are made following a public nominations process and decision by an expert judging panel. There are eight award categories for coaches and three for awards in support of coaching, plus the overall title of UK Coach of the Year. That means there's a category for every aspect of coaching, from volunteers working at a local level in the community right through to full-time professional coaches working with our national teams.

To nominate for the awards please use the judging guidance and nomination forms here. All details are within these documents. Nominations must be made by 24 September 2016.
