We are looking for people from across our community to join our new Coaching Working Group to help us achieve our vision of enriching lives through archery.
We deeply value, the wealth of experience and knowledge held within our amazing volunteers. We therefore wish to call upon the skills and attributes of those involved in the sport to help the archery family grow and diversify, and welcome even more people into or sport.
The Coaching Working Group will check and challenge the thinking, behaviours, activities, and documentation relating to instructors and coaching.
We further wish to understand our instructors, coaches, volunteers and members needs and perspectives, identifying support required and empowering activities and people on the ground.
So, if you want to help us then we would like to hear from you. Membership of the working group is open to any coach or instructor – with an Archery GB qualification. Attendees are appointed for a two-year period and we are looking for between 4 and 6 people. Meetings will be held throughout the year, at least once every quarter. This is a volunteer role, with most meetings online.
The tasks of the Coaching Working Group are to:
The Coaching Working Group is an advisory group and it is not intended to replace the accountability of Archery GB for the achievement of programme goals but instead complement the existing governance arrangements. Archery GB will continue to assume responsibility for the day to day running of coaching and instructor projects and programmes.
Archery GB’s Strategic Plan will be the guiding document for all system partners and the Coaching & Instructors operational plan and key performance indicators will inform the overall strategic work plan for the Coaching Working Group.
Should we receive more applications than places, we will shortlist against the skills matrix and may conduct short interviews with candidates to ensure that we receive a mix of views and experiences.
