Meet the Mentors: Women & Girls Coaching Academy (WGCA)

We recently held our first Introductory Call as part of the Women & Girls Coaching Academy (WGCA). WGCA has been formed to provide a dedicated space and support programme for women & girls interested in coaching, with the aim of encouraging more women and girls to take up coaching roles. 

We had 14 participants and 6 mentors join this session to kick off the programme. There were some really interesting discussions and thanks to the contributions from everyone that attended.

The objectives of the programme include:

• Space for women & girls to share their journey, inspire each other and reflect together on progress and challenges

• Create a female coaching community within Scotland, bringing people together to support each other

• Gain insight into challenges females face when getting into coaching and identify collective solutions to reduce potential barriers

• Provide support through a Coach Education subsidy which covers minimum of 50% of course costs

• Partnerships with organisations that can support and provide expertise to the programme
