About Us

Welcome to University of Central Lancashire Sports Coaching & Sports Development Blog. Our courses provide students with the opportunity to develop a range of skills and experiences which ensure upon graduation they are equipped to adapt and secure roles in a range of related sectors.

Working with leading academics in their field and drawing upon a network of organisations and agencies, students can apply their knowledge, understanding and skills in the real world, whether in the UK working with professional football clubs or in Sub-Saharan African in some of the most challenging communities in the world.

We know the world is changing all the time so we ensure UCLan graduates have the pre-requisite skills to adapt and change by supporting their needs and ambitions.

“Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to unite in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination”
