Woodward To Continue As Boa Chief

The British Olympic Association has postponed the decision to decide on the future of Sir Clive Woodward’s coaching programme until the end of the year.??

Deloitte handed the BOA a detailed report on Woodward’s Olympic coaching programme that provided an analysis of it along with other ‘potential opportunities regarding its construct in the future’.??

The BOA said in a statement that it will fully explore all the opportunities highlighted by the report.??

‘The BOA board reaffirmed the critical role that coaching and coaching education play in the development of successful Olympic athletes, and the need for quality coaching at every level of sport,’ said the statement.??

However, whatever the outcome of BOA’s decision is, Woodward will remain as the organisation’s director of sport.??

The programme is one of three areas of responsibility that Woodward has at the BOA, he is also the organisation’s director of sport and runs performance services and sport engagement and athlete engagement.
