We want to grow and diversify the coaching workforce across the county to enable more people to have a great time playing the sport. No matter whether you are putting something back into the game you love, progressing your career, helping out at your local club, or simply providing more support to your child, there is a reason for everyone to get involved in cricket coaching.
Groups that have been identified to increase the diversity of learners accessing coach development programmes are:
- Potential coaches that are female
- Potential coaches from ethnically diverse communities
- Potential coaches with a disability
- Potential coaches experiencing financial hardship.
A bursary can be awarded to learners that register on an ECB Support Coach, ECB Foundation Coach or ECB Core Coach programmes between 1st February 2024 - 31st January 2025.
Anyone wanting to access coach development that is experiencing financial hardship will be awarded a bursary of up to 100% of the national price of the programme. Once an applicant receives confirmation they will need complete their programme registration using a discount code to redeem their bursary.
Anyone wanting to access coach development that is female, from an ethnically diverse community, has a disability who is not experiencing financial hardship will be awarded a bursary of up to 50% of the national price of the programme. Once an applicant receives confirmation, they will need to complete their programme registration and make full payment. They will receive a refund to redeem their bursary upon attendance at the face to face modules.
