Premier Skills is a international partnership with the Premier League operating in 25 countries across Asia, Africa and the Americas from Afghanistan to Zambia.
The project focuses on developing community coaches and referees and on supporting community projects. The programme has also created a range of materials, including a dedicated website, using football-based content for teachers and learners of English. A key element of the project is week-long training activities for local community-level coaches and referees, which are delivered by professional coaches from the Premier League clubs. Since 2007 Premier Skills has created training opportunities benefitting 2,300 grassroots coaches and referees.
The participants are supported to develop their own community-focused football projects, with many gaining the skills needed to cascade training to other coaches working with the community.

In the studio today was Patric Fawcett,ICT and ELT Coordinator, David McNally,Senior Teacher, and Rachel May, a student studying Arabic who is also assists the Premier Skills coaches with the coaching activities.
