Coach For Life Foundation

The Coach for Life Foundation has been established by Jon & Sue Tanner and a group of foundation Trustees via their Charitable Trust, the Sport Development and Innovation Charitable Trust with a clear objective of growing the quality of youth sport coaches in New Zealand. We believe that quality youth sport coaching helps grow, nurture and develop our young athletes to become better athletes, better people, and better New Zealanders. If we can enhance the capability of our youth sport coaches we believe young athletes will have richer sporting experiences and are more likely to stay in sport longer. To achieve this the Coach for Life Foundation is committed to delivering programmes of work that provide our youth sport coaches with resources and inspiration to enable them to provide quality sporting experiences for our youth.
