Where technology meets excellence in sports coaching.
FUTURECOACH is a European Erasmus+ VET partnership that modernises coach education by fusing artificial intelligence, VR/AR and wearable tech with proven pedagogy. Our mission is to give every coach—especially those from disadvantaged or under-resourced settings—the digital tools and know-how needed to raise athlete performance and foster inclusion.
We strive to make high-quality, technology-enhanced coaching education accessible to every coach in Europe, regardless of background or resources. By combining research, innovation and collaboration, FUTURECOACH helps coaches create inclusive, athlete-centred environments.
Across four countries we co-design practical, evidence-based resources—mobile tools, interactive modules and policy briefs—that enable coaches to integrate AI video, VR/AR practice and wearable analytics into day-to-day training.
While professional clubs have embraced technology, grassroots and amateur coaches often lack access to the same resources.
FUTURECOACH bridges this gap by creating open, accessible tools that bring cutting-edge technology to coaches at every level.
Our consortium identified a critical need: coaches want to use technology but face barriers including cost, complexity and lack of training.
Technology that levels the playing field for all coaches and athletes.
Practical tools that give coaches control over their professional growth.
Cross-sector partnerships that blend sport science, pedagogy and digital expertise.
Continuous exploration of emerging tech to keep coaching future-ready.
