Coaching in the Community Scheme
The coaching in the community scheme is a fantastic opportunity open to all students and staff at the University. The project is designed to support and fund individuals to take part in coaching courses in return for some voluntary coaching hours within the local community. Doing this you will develop new skills, meet new people, have fun and improve your non academic CV! If you are interested in volunteering in sport you may be eligible for funding to cover part of the cost (or in some cases the entire cost) of the course. Anyone interested in the scheme is asked to contact the Coach Education team on

1) How do I apply for a course?
Apply early; popularity of these courses is increasing. Please contact the Coach Education team at UniSPORT if you are interested in a course, from here you will be directed to the appropriate National Governing Body (NGB). In many instances administration for courses is processed by the NGB and applications will be taken on a first come, first served basis.
2) Do I have to pay for all courses in advance?
Most courses require payment with the submission of your application form. Please ensure you check whether this is the case for your course as this is the only way your place can be guaranteed.
3) Is there any remission available to me?
If you are a student or member of staff at the University of Surrey, you will have the opportunity of a whole or part-course subsidy. To receive this, you must have signed up to the University’s ‘Coaching in the Community’ scheme. To be considered on this scheme please contact the Coach Education team on

. Alternatively you may be entitled to a concession rate, please contact the Coach Education team or the NGB of your course to see if there are discounts available.
4) What happens if there are not enough candidates to run the course?
We will do everything we can to ensure a course takes place, however courses are run subject to demand and UniSPORT reserves the right to cancel the courses up until 4 working days before the course starts. In the event of a course cancellation a full refund will be given. If your course is being administered by the NGB you will be notified directly by them so please ensure you have given accurate contact information.
