Success Story

Andrew Hibberd

Coach 2 Include

Andrew has recently set up his own business, Coach 2 Include, alongside two fellow students specialising in disability sport and providing specialist sporting activities to participants of all abilities.

“Not only did the tutors really help us with learning the coaching skills we needed, they also taught us the business skills we needed to be able to set up our own businesses - like I have done with Coach 2 Include. ”

More about our
Hillsborough Campus 4

I'm currently studying the Level 3 Foundation Degree in Sports Coaching at The Sheffield College Hillsborough Campus. After we volunteered for a coaching session we realised just how much we enjoyed it and had the talent for it. We realised there was a real lack of opportunities for disability sport in the area and we thought we could help improve things. The tutors helped us set up the business and secure funding to get the kit and equipment we needed to start.

Since starting the business, it really has gone from strength to strength and we have managed to gain partnerships with Sheffield Wednesday and the FA. Moving forward, I would like to deliver more sessions in schools and I am thinking about doing my 3rd year at University.
