Why has The FA Youth Award being incorporated into the main FA Coach Education Pathway rather than running as standalone courses?

The FA Youth Award Modules have always received a high level of positive feedback from learners yet take-up rates were generally lower than the core coaching qualifications. In order to raise the standards of coaching in England a comprehensive review of all education provision was completed.


From the findings it was decided that the principles of The FA Youth Award modules should be incorporated into the new core coaching qualifications to ensure all coaches have access to these principles and understand how to apply them to the environment in which they coach.
