News on bursaries for 2025 will appear on this page when ready. At the moment applications are closed.
After two years of involvement the Liverpool Victoria General Insurance Group Limited is no longer providing support and the fund reverts back to the original investment committed to by the England and Wales Cricket Trust. Bursaries are intended to increase the diversity of learners taking their first step into coaching, gaining a qualification or taking the next step on their coach development journey.
Groups that have been identified to increase the diversity of learners accessing coach development programmes are:
• Potential coaches/coaches that are female
• Potential coaches/coaches from ethnically diverse communities
• Potential coaches/coaches with a disability
• Potential coaches/coaches experiencing financial hardship.
A bursary can be awarded to learners that register on ECB Support Coach, ECB Foundation Coach or ECB Core Coach programmes between 1st February 2025 and 31st January 2026.
Anyone wanting to access coach development that is experiencing financial hardship will be awarded a bursary of up to 100% of the national price of the programme.
Anyone wanting to access coach development that is female, from an ethnically diverse community, has a disability who is not experiencing hardship will be awarded a bursary of up to 50% of the national price of the programme. Once an applicant receives confirmation, they will need to complete their Cvent registration and make full payment and upon attendance at face-to-face modules receive a refund to redeem their bursary.
