sportscotland is delighted to have collaborated with Hampden Sports Clinic, the Scottish FA and Scottish Rugby to produce a Mental Health and Wellbeing e-learning module, supported by SAMH and Scottish Sports Futures, that will provide players, coaches, parents and officials with the tools and techniques to effectively support participants. This e-learning can be accessed here.
In addition, Scottish Sports Futures have developed a complimentary Mental Health and Wellbeing ETC Workshop that is available for free until the end of March 2022 due to support and funding from Scottish Government. Initially, this offer will be delivered online and is designed specifically to support coaches in their role. Further information on the learning outcomes and the booking process can be found in the attached documents. Further details can be obtained by emailing etc@ssf.org.uk
Whilst both interventions can be completed independently, we’d recommend that the e-learning module is completed first in order to obtain a basic understanding and awareness, before following up with the ETC Workshop to compliment and support an individual’s learning.
If you attend either of these training opportunities, please let us know!
