Become an Education & Training Partner
Disability Sport Wales, along with the four home nations, pioneered the UK Disability Inclusion Training course. It was the first of it’s kind within disability sport, where coaches and volunteers could understand how to deliver inclusively and how to enhance their coaching to make it inclusive of disabled people.
Disability Inclusion Training has now been expanded to include two versions: one for coaches and volunteers in sport and one for teachers and education staff. Disability Sport Wales also provide training on Play Together, Inclusive marketing, Autism Awareness (in partnership with Autism Wales), and coaching Boccia.
Through your association with the Disability Sport Wales Education and Training opportunities, you will benefit from:
- Wales-wide brand awareness and programme naming rights
- Reach coaches, volunteers, athletes, schools, teachers, trainee teachers, HE and FE students, leisure service provider staff, and sector leading organisations
- Opportunity to genuinely improve the lives of disabled people across Wales and supporting disabled people to have a fulfilled life through the engagement with sport and physical activity
- Opportunity to ensure that all those students training to be the next generation of within the sector are inclusive from the outset
- Ensure that disabled people can access sport and physical activity opportunities for many more years to come.
