Creating the coaches of the future

Stafford Rangers in the Community is proud to announce an exciting and innovative new scheme to give young people the chance to take the first steps towards a career in football coaching. Each year we will pay for up to 10 youngsters to take their stage 1 coaching badges and then provide work experience for them to hone their coaching skills delivering the charity’s own community programme. In time we hope to expand this programme to other sports. To do this we need to raise around £2,000 p.a. of which £500 has already been pledged for this year. We need to raise the money quickly to meet the deadlines for the next training courses.

Will you support this great scheme by making a donation, however small? You can do so by visiting our Just Giving page. If you are a UK taxpayer you can increase the value of your donation to the charity by 21% by agreeing to Gift Aid it – don’t worry, the extra money comes from the government not you!

STOP PRESS NEWS! The first 5 candidates for the coaching course have been chosen from our Academy students. Congratulations to them and thanks to our Community Engagement Officer Andy Turner for all his hard work organising this scheme.
