Aim
Our domestic FAW/UEFA B Licence course gives coaches the necessary skills and experience to work with players aged 12 and above. The Welsh Way principles, as set-out in the FAW National Syllabus, are embedded into the course to provide a focus. The domestic course runs over six months and involves theory and online modules, which underpin practical elements.
About
The FAW/UEFA B Licence course is designed to develop game understanding and technical and tactical knowledge, via a combination of practical sessions, theory, distance and e-learning.

Fully funded access to FAW Courses supported by Chase
In 2024, our Official Banking Partner Chase and the FAW will be providing fully funded access to Coach Education courses, open to individuals across Wales, including the FAW/ UEFA B Licence.
Not everyone has access to the same opportunities when it comes to developing skills that can help support career growth. The Welsh FA and Chase want to help change that, by harnessing the power of football to help you develop transferable skills that can help unlock your potential, on and off the pitch.
Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for the course, individuals must meet the following criteria, at the time of application:
• Are aged 16 and over,
• Be living in Wales or currently volunteering, playing or coaching for a football club in Wales.
• And at least one of the following; have an annual household income under £22,800, receive universal credit, received free school meals as a child or your parents were in a low paid or low skilled job when you were 14.
We will also ask you two questions (with a maximum 200 word limit). Your answers will be used to assess your suitability for a fully funded place and should demonstrate the impact the qualification would have on helping you achieve your football coaching ambitions:
• the first asks why you should be considered for funding so we can understand your motivation for taking this course,
• the second is about your football aspirations to understand how you will use this qualification to benefit football.
