- - - - The new system prioritises the holistic development of the coach and enables them to access continued support, resource and qualifications throughout his or her coaching career, whether he or she remains in junior club coaching, moves on to male or female senior coaching at grassroots level, pursues opportunities within the performance end of the game or a mixture of the above.
      - Rather than a pyramid-type coach development system with Tag and Children’s Level 1 at the bottom and Level 4 at the top, the recent consultation process, along with research and collaboration with other governing bodies and organisations have helped the WRU design a new system which places the coach at the centre and recognises the various ways and entry points individuals may get into coaching. It allows for more regular workshops and assistance (CPD) outside the formal coach courses to enable coaches to become more skilled and supported at their chosen level of coaching, which will in turn help them to develop better players.
      - The coaching courses have also been changed, principally introducing a new ‘Coaching Early Contact’ course for under 9s to under 11s which recognises the need for additional support, especially around the important area of safety within the game, at a crucial time for players as tackling and other elements of the rugby are introduced and developed.
    - - The WRU Facilities Grant is available for all clubs to apply for, and is now closely aligned with the Welsh Rugby Standards. All Club Secretaries will have received the clubs Welsh Rugby Standards level in August 2017. Projects which are highlighted in the ‘Facilities’ pillar of the Welsh Rugby Standards will be given priority.
      - Please note that the Facilities Grant looks to support projects which demonstrate evidence that they will result in an increase of Rugby Participation, and/or Club Sustainability.
      - Clubs can submit one application per season. Any previous Facilities Grant awards must be completed prior to subsequent applications.
      - Funding Rounds are held throughout each Season with grants available up to £25,000 (£50,000 for collaborative projects).
- - - - UK Sport has identified coaching as a key element of the high performance system in the UK.
      - Coaching, alongside other key performance support services such as Sports Medicine and Sports Science, Performance Lifestyle and Research and Innovation, plays a crucial role in ensuring the ongoing success of British athletes.
      - The UK Sport coaching team seeks to ensure the delivery of quality coaching to athletes on UK Sport's World Class Performance Pathway, a system devised to identify, develop and refine talented British athletes.
      - To achieve this, the UK Sport World Class Coaching Strategy must deliver targeted and innovative programmes and interventions specific to the needs of world class coaches.
    - - We are delighted to present UK Sport’s Business Plan for the 2017 to 2021 cycle, which explains UK Sport’s vision, mission and objectives as we build on the achievements of the Rio and Sochi Olympic and Paralympic Games.
      - Following on from Rio 2016, where Britain become the first nation ever to win more medals at the next Games after hosting, our athletes and the teams that support them strive to continue to make our nation proud and build on the incredible success seen over successive Olympic and Paralympic Cycles.
      - Alongside this, our work continues to drive the UK's programme of international sporting events into the 2020s to set new benchmarks in terms of impact, innovation and quality, bringing world-leading major and mega events to the UK.
      - In parallel we work with our partners across the UK to drive and support world-leading standards of professional, organisational and ethical conduct in funded bodies and to ensure that the UK has a strong, respected and supportive voice in international sport.
    - - UK Sport’s investment is made through four year awards which have a future focus. This reflects our ambition to develop a more sustainable, healthy and efficient sporting ecosystem, and acknowledges that this will take time.
      - The process involves us working with sports when coming into investment decisions for each Olympic and Paralympic cycle. We provide guidance to sports and work closely with them in building their case for investment against an agreed set of criteria and requirements. Submissions are then evaluated on both an individual basis, as well as looking at the overall affordability and balance of resources between investment streams.
      - When our awards are made they are against specific investment streams designed to provide support to sports and athletes who meet the eligibility criteria.
      - Investment is provided at a number of different levels including:
      - Contributing to the costs and services needed to support high-performance athletes to achieve success in the Olympic or Paralympic Games and at other major competitions.
      - Assisting sports with the long-term aim of growing a more accessible and sustainable system of support that enables more high potential athletes to emerge.
      - Ensuring the most promising athletes can attend major championship competitions and Games qualification events.
