This article presents the key findings from the evaluation of the Coach Mate Connectors Programme, developed by Street Games in the West Midlands. The programme was developed to improve access to coach development opportunities, particularly for under-represented groups. This research has particular relevance for the implementation of the UK wide Future of Coaching Strategy (2016-2025) and the Coaching Plan for England, which highlighted the need to diversify the coaching workforce. An independent evaluation was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the programme. Several key strengths to the programme were identified. Of particular benefit to those coaches involved in the programme were: one to one mentoring; ‘little and often’ interventions; an inclusive approach to coach development and coach developing+, which incorporated wider support and career advice.Citation
