Sport is fuelled by more than 300,000 coaches in New Zealand. Most of this workforce are volunteers who play a significant role in enabling sport at all levels in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Volunteer coaches who give their time to supporting our tamariki and rangatahi are everyday heroes who do a wide variety of day jobs and have a direct impact on the experience of young people, keeping them in the game for longer.
Great coaches develop more than sports skills - their dedication goes beyond the field, fostering a positive environment where participants of all ages can develop skills, confidence, and lifelong friendships.
Sport NZ, in collaboration with Coach for Life, is taking the opportunity during season transition to make coaches feel recognised and valued, due to their important role in our communities.
