Coaches & safeguarding
We recruit. You play.
Coach Axis handles the whole recruitment lifecycle — taking the search, the checks and the paperwork off your sports department.

Consistent coaching
Safeguarding
Clearly shared responsibilities.
Every coach is checked before they set foot on your courts, and your own safeguarding arrangements stay in charge on site.
Coach Axis completes
- Enhanced DBS with barred-list check
- LTA accreditation verified, Level 3 and above
- First Aid at Work certification confirmed

Your school keeps

Continuity
Succession built in.
If a coach moves on, we recruit and induct their replacement so your programme carries on — with the same schemes of work, squads and standards.
Included in your annual licence
Coach succession planning and replacement recruitment are part of the partnership, not an extra.
