What is UK Coaching Week?
UK Coaching Week 2025 runs from 2–8 June and is a national celebration of the transformative power of coaching. This year’s theme, “Pass It On”, highlights how great coaching can build confidence, ignite passion, and unlock potential—not just in sport, but in life.
The campaign encourages everyone—coaches, athletes, organisations, and the public—to share the best coaching advice they’ve received or given, and to celebrate the positive impact coaches have on individuals and communities across the UK.
