Stevenage FC Foundation is hosting an Opening Evening on Wednesday 26th February 2020 for prospective students of their Community Football Coaching Degree...
Stevenage FC Foundation’s two-year Foundation Degree programme is a course designed for individuals wanting to attain a university qualification and are passionate about pursuing a career in the football industry.
Students develop the necessary skills, qualities and characteristics that are required to work within professional football club community departments or national governing bodies.
Delivered in partnership with the University of South Wales, all lectures, seminars and tutorials are delivered in a supportive and inspirational club environment via online material.
Alongside the academic element of the course, students will complete up to 200 hours of voluntary coaching within the community, alongside the Foundation staff, allowing the students to embed and develop the coaching techniques learnt within lectures.
Through the Foundation's partnership with the University of South Wales, all students will be enrolled as a student at the university.
