Happy 14th of the month! If you’ve been following our journey, you might know that the number 14 is pretty special to us—it's in our name, after all! From today onwards, every month on the 14th, we’ll be dropping a monthly catch-up blog right here. It’s our chance to pause, take a breath, and share all the exciting highlights, milestones, and behind-the-scenes moments with our wonderful community.
Since this is our very first The 14th Blog, we thought: why limit ourselves to just the past month? Instead, let’s rewind and celebrate our incredible first full year in business!
🏃♂️ A Year of Growth, Energy, and Inspiring Through Sport!
When we first launched 14 Sports Coaching, our goal was simple: to inspire children through high-quality, fun, and inclusive sports sessions. At our core, we are a business that puts people first—from the children we coach and the schools we support, to the parents who trust us and the team that brings every session to life.
One year later, looking back at how far we've come fills us with so much pride! We are now officially delivering sports programmes across a wide range of local primary schools, helping more children stay active, build confidence, and fall in love with sport than ever before. Whether it's helping a child master a new skill or watching a group cheer each other on, every single day has been an absolute blast.
Here’s a quick glance at what we’ve been up to over our debut year:
Ever-Growing Soccer Schools: Grassroots Football was the very first contract we secured and today we are proudly delivering on the partnership with demand continuing to surge. Our Soccer School numbers have grown rapidly, allowing us to introduce split age ranges so every child gets targeted coaching tailored to their development.
PPA Cover Leading the Way: Our PPA comitment is more than just showing up to a school and delivering. It’s flexibility, reliability and passion! Today we proudly deliver over 25 hours of PPA every week—keeping children engaged while giving teachers that well-deserved planning time.
Expanding Multi-Sports After School Clubs: We started with one, now we are running several across a range of local schools and age groups, giving children the chance to try everything from dodgeball to athletics while building fundamental movement skills.
Thriving Football After School Clubs: Our first ever After School Club was a parent paid Football ASC - now we are delivering several football ASCs across various age groups and schools, funded by both schools and parents.
Seeing the smiles, energy, and enthusiasm from all the young people and families we coach every week makes all the hard work worth it. To every school, parent, and child who trusted us during our first year—thank you! You made this milestone possible 💙
