Coach For Life Foundation

At Coach For Life, we’re passionate about highlighting inspirational stories that align with our mission so we are truly proud to showcase the commitment of some remarkable coaches in our new documentary “The Snow Coaches”. This 30min film delves into the legendary tale of the Kiwi Park & Pipe coaching team and how they broke new ground by bringing snowboarders and freestyle skiers together in one programme, creating a coaching philosophy that would deliver Olympic medals for New Zealand. To WATCH NOW Visit hub.coachforlife.nz Andrew Gaze Jon Tanner (QSM)

Over the past 2 days we have been lucky enough to attend the bi-annual Secondary Schools Sport Conference hosted by Sport New Zealand and School Sport NZ. This years theme - "Moving through Change" underscores the importance of adapting to the societal and sectoral shifts impacting school sports and was explored through five key areas: Technology, Education, Sport, Environmental, and Rangatahi (youth). What better way to connect with nearly 450 delegates to educate them about our free sports coaching hub (www.hub.coachforlife.nz) and meet our existing coach network and welcome new members to our community.

Every day, coaches give their time to make a difference in the lives of young Kiwis so we are proud to partner with Sport New Zealand to help celebrate these everyday heroes. Thank them for everything they do at www.thankscoach.co.nz Jon Tanner (QSM)

Our Foundation exists to inspire coaches to make a difference so that our rangatahi have more positive sporting experiences, resulting in a lifetime love and involvement in sport. Equally, our coaches will also be inspired to grow and develop themselves, and therefore stay involved in coaching for longer. We are therefore thrilled to be able to support and contribute to the coaching resources section on the NEW ZEALAND CRICKET app by sharing our Mike Hesson advice videos from our own Coach For Life coaching hub.

Being inspired by others to lead a life of philanthropy is a testament to the power of human connection and the innate desire to make a difference in the world. It's a journey that often begins with witnessing acts of kindness, generosity, and selflessness in others. Today we acknowledge the passing of Keith William Tanner, our founder Jon Tanner’s beloved father, and say thank you for the legacy of philanthropy that continues within the Tanner family.

Our CEO Andrew Gaze is featured in this months issue of Kia Ora magazine... why? Because we're thrilled to announce that one of our special coach documentaries featuring Tony O'Connor is not only available to view on our Hub but it's now available on Air New Zealand's inflight entertainment. How good is that! https://lnkd.in/gGy4D6Mj
