Can you help coach? There are definite benefits to coaching - it's good for you, it benefits the community, and it's good for your child if you choose to coach their team.

Coaching is a great way to meet other people and is a fulfilling experience, as you help encourage people to get keep active through sport. 

Even though you're not playing, it's good exercise and will help keep you active, especially if your coaching kids sports.

If you're not a teacher, or if you haven't held any sort of leadership role and are currently coaching, or looking to coach children and young people, you may find it helpful to take advantage of training programmes offered by Coaching Edinburgh. There are opportunities for those keen to further develop their coaching skills and qualifications.
