If you missed a recent event but would still like to hear about it, details are available on request.

Need Training?

I'm responsible for coordinating regional delivery of British Rowing's Education Courses and workshops as well as RYA2 Powerboat Handling.

These both require a set number of participants in order to go ahead, so please email me if you're keen to complete a qualification soon. This means I can check if there's anyone from any other clubs (in the region and beyond) wanting to do the same thing, making it more likely that the course can run.

Please note that we offer grants to help cover the cost of certain qualifications!  

Visit our Funding page for full details.

Need Advice?

Coaching is so much more than just certificates! It's really important that you continue to feel supported in your role and are able to keep learning and asking questions.

I organise a series of free events throughout the year designed to refresh your knowledge, build your confidence and give you the opportunity to connect with other coaches in the region.  

You don't have to be a qualified coach or even in a current coaching role in order to attend; we welcome everyone who is curious and keen to find out more.

If there's a particular topic that you'd like to see covered, just drop me a line and I will try and make it happen!
