Club Support Programme

The Club Support Programme is a programme designed to support clubs in the development of the athletes in their care. It is managed by the Regional Pathway Development Coach and offers additional weekly training to athletes of a particular age and level, training that would be seen as supplementary to that being offered by the club.
