Ambassador - Neil Winskill
Professional Development Coach (U18 Lead) - Newcastle United Academy
“I know from my own coaching journey how important it is to continuously educate yourself and broaden your knowledge that will help you to become a more effective coach.
"Learning from other coaches is what has helped me become the coach I am today. Observing others working & sharing good practice supports us all in our own personal development.
"The Coach The Coach CPD events & workshops will add value to the coaching workforce across the County to help create outstanding learning environments for all players of all abilities.”
Listen to Neil discuss the importance of continued coach development with our Football Development Officer Gary Middleton:
