What is the criteria for a Partially funded/Chase Fully funded place?

The criteria is different for the Partially Funded Places Programme (FFP) and Chase Fully Funded Places.

The Partially Funded Places Programme is aligned to our wider goal of helping to increase participation within historically underrepresented groups. For this programme, we welcome applications from coaches who fit into one or more of the following categories:

  • Female coaches
  • Coaches from ethnically diverse backgrounds
  • Coaches from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds
  • Coaches with disabilities

Chase Fully Funded Places have been created to provide funding opportunities for coaches who would benefit from financial support towards completing either the Introduction to Coaching Football, UEFA B Licence or UEFA A Licence.

For this programme we welcome applications from coaches who meet the following criteria, at the time of the application:

 

  • Aged 16 and over
  • Live in England or volunteer, play or coach for a football club in England.
  • And at least one of the following: Have an annual income under £22,800, receive universal credit, received free school meals as a child or your parents were in a low paid or low skilled job when you were 14.

 

When applying you’ll also be asked two questions (with a maximum 200-word limit). Your answers will be used to assess your suitability for a fully funded place and should demonstrate the impact the qualification would have on helping you achieve your football coaching ambitions.

 

  • the first asks why you should be considered for funding so we can understand your motivation for taking this course.
  • the second question is about your football aspirations to understand how you will use this qualification to benefit football.
