HC Deb 19 June 2003 vol 407 c354W
Mr. Gardiner

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport how many community sports coaches will be created under the Community Sports Coaches Scheme in(a) 2003, (b) 2004, (c) 2005 and (d) 2006. [120402]

Mr. Caborn

I expect the first phase of some 100 community sports coaches to be operational during the current financial year. Decisions on future phases will be made in the light of that experience. We remain committed to creating 3,000 community sports coaches to help develop sports skills across the country by 2006.
