	answer text	<p>31% of sports coaches in the UK are women. Sport England is investing £5 million through Sports coach UK to improve the standard and availability of coaching. This includes a pilot project to recruit and retain 500 new female coaches in the south-east. The aim is to roll out the project nationally from 2015 and recruit up to 5,000 new female coaches. While there is some evidence to suggest the gender of coach can be important to participants, the quality and enjoyment of the coaching session remain key factors in increasing and maintaining the number of women who take part in a sport.</p><p>Sport England does not hold any specific data on female match officials.</p>
