Thread of Gold - The Sedbergh Philosophy
At Sedbergh we believe children best develop skills and attitudes when they are inspired. Our intention is to create skilful, adaptable people both on and off the pitch. GOLD underpins all the above.
Sedbergh’s Thread of GOLD: - GROWTH, ORIGINALITY, LEADERSHIP and DETERMINATION is integrated into each programme with fun and enjoyment at the very heart of delivery.

Environmentally we look at how kind people are to each other. It is important to us as coaches to have daily positive and productive interactions with every child. It gives us information to act upon, creates great energy and a strong platform to learn.
