Coaching Support
Football is for everyone.
Here at Norfolk FA, we work hard to ensure that whoever participates in football has a great experience. We provide support for all of our coaches to help raise the standard of the game in this county.
In this section you'll find information about support initiatives and training opportunities to help you improve as a coach, be safe in your coaching and the environments you create, and access on-the-ground support when you need it.
The Norfolk FA Coaches Club
Here at the County FA, we acknowledge that changes to coach education have left coaches without face-to-face support. We want to invest our time and resources into filling this void to support the people that keep grassroots football going.
SAFEGUARDING IS EVERYONE’S RESPONSIBILITY
Everyone in football has a responsibility to make our game safe and enjoyable.
This is particularly true for coaches. A coach is in a privileged position. The nature of the role means he/she can have significant influence over children and young people and develop relationships of trust with children and their parents/carers. It’s therefore important that coaches understand their safeguarding responsibilities.
Find out how The FA and Norfolk FA manages safeguarding nationally and locally. You’ll also find detailed information on the game’s safeguarding strategy, and how it applies to you.
