Community Sport and Health Officer Apprentice - Oadby

Coach Core’s vision is to drive social mobility through apprenticeships and sport, so that every young person can reach their true potential and inspire those around them. Since our launch in 2012, we have worked with over 150 of the biggest sports providers, youth clubs and charities in the country, supporting over 500 young people.

The Community Sport and Health Officer role is the perfect opportunity to understand the role of sport and physical activity in the Community, and Super Star Sports are offering a great opportunity to learn lots of different sports with the support from the directors and other coaches within the company, all while having a positive impact on the live of young people.

Often, nursery sessions are in the morning, and then we deliver at lunchtime for schools getting as many children active as we can.

The day finishes with an after school club, delivering a range of different sports, from football, archery, basketball to spy club.
