The final report from the CTF was released in July 2002.

  10. What Next • Discuss the scheme with your club, local authority SDO, local high school, National Governing Body to ensure you will be able to secure funding, and that you can find a suitable employer for the coach • Contact Jane Hannah at the Norfolk Sports Alliance to register your interest, and to further discuss the scheme
