Our goal is to develop, deliver and evaluate a theoretically-grounded and evidence-based coach education programme that can help coaches foster quality motivation and make youth sport engaging, empowering, and enjoyable. The PAPA Project is funded by the EC under the Framework 7 programme. PAPA involves a collaboration between leading researchers and sporting leaders in the UK, Norway, Spain, France and Greece.
