The #BetwayCares Skills Hub initiative is a nationwide skills development programme that aims to both address unemployment and uplift communities through sport. 

The Gary Kirsten Foundation is utilising the CoachEd platform in collaboration with a team of international coaches. The licensed platform is designed to enable aspiring coaches to complete an accredited online coaching qualification that provides a balanced combination of theoretical and practical knowledge. With the use of this innovative training program, the #BetwayCares Skills Hub initiative’s next stop in the Western Cape on 30 March will engage 20 coaches from the talent-rich area of Khayelitsha and its surroundings.
