What People Say...

“Positive Coaching Scotland will be a major culture-changing programme in Scotland, and we are determined to ensure that in due course it impacts the lives of all young Scots involved in sport."

Tommy Boyle

Our Programmes

One of the ways the Winning Scotland Foundation works toward achieving its vision of Scottish success through sustained effort is via its range of programmes. 

Our current programmes introduce new and innovative ways of attracting the young to sport and aim to foster a culture where sport is viewed as an enjoyable way to learn essential skills such as

  • Value of hard work
  •  Empathy
  • Cooperation
  • Respect 

Sport is inspirational and brings communities together for the common good.  We will continue to invest our expertise in developing more forward-thinking and brave methods of harnessing the power of sport as an agent for change.
