Description
The aim of Brookes Sport is to create an environment where teams and individuals are supported to succeed, and maintain our national BUCS ranking (31st-39th place).
All official Brookes Sport sports clubs are recognised under the TEAMBrookes banner.
TEAMBrookes encapsulates 35+ affiliated sports clubs, with in excess of 1,600 representative student members. TEAMBrookes sports clubs are supported, administered and regulated by the student-sport staff team.
Whilst TEAMBrookes sports clubs are principally student-led (by the student committee), Brookes Sport employs sports coaches to deliver technical coaching to support in monitoring ongoing team and individual performance, to oversee fair team selections for competition, and ensure quality and consistency in the student experience. Sports coaches are a very visible and influential extension of the sports department, having a vast amount of interaction with student-athletes and therefore they play a key role in fostering a positive, welcoming and inclusive environment for students to take part in. At all times, sports coaches should look to help with the implementation of changes and recommendations as set out in the Brookes Sport Culture Review. Sports coaches are line-managed by the Student Sport Manager. Sports coaches should ensure a positive working relationship with student Captains and club Presidents.
