In 2008 TWF made an initial investment of £219,000, over two years, in the Winning Scotland Foundation to establish and develop Positive Coaching Scotland (PCS) – a community focused coaching programme aiming to redefine winning and increase young people’s participation in sport.
PCS is a cultural change programme designed to create a positive environment for young people with a focus on using sport to help and support learning and development of life skills.
The pilot was successfully delivered in four local authorities and with the Fife SFA. The potential for growth was such that in 2010 sportscotland, the national agency for sport, assumed operational management for the national implementation of PCS and TWF invested a further £150,000 over a three-year period.
