LMA & LCA COACH.

The LMA & LCA Coach: Advanced Skill Acquisition Course is a 12-week, 6-module online programme focused on core aspects of skill acquisition principles and how to apply these to football coaching.

The LMA and LCA recognises the fundamental role of coaching in the growth and development of the game at all levels. Elite coaching practice in England continues to evolve and is at the forefront of the game’s strategic approach to improving the standard of football in the domestic professional game and at the international level with England’s representative teams, at senior and junior levels.

Our mission is to provide the highest standard of guidance, expertise and resources, equipping our members to succeed at the elite level. In partnership with the St Mary’s University, the LMA & LCA Coach – Advanced Skill Acquisition Short Course represents a new approach to embedding learning and behaviour change within our coaching workforce, specifically around the key subject of skill acquisition.

The LMA and LCA are committed to providing access to vocationally relevant, expert-led programmes to both memberships, including coaches from all backgrounds, to continue to develop their understanding of truly excellent coaching and player development.
