2021 Coaching Report Card

The Coaches Association of Ontario (CAO), in partnership with the University of Toronto, are launching a first-of-its-kind study into the landscape of coaching in Ontario.

We want to make coaching and sport better for everyone.  

To make it happen we need your help. Share your coaching experience through this 15-minute survey and help us make it possible.

Let us know: 

• How the sport system could better support you?
• How has COVID-19 impacted your athletes?
• What challenges have you encountered along your coaching journey?
• Why does coaching matter?
• And much much more…

By sharing anonymously how you feel about coaching and sport in Ontario, you will help us improve the quality of the entire provincial sport system for coaches just like you.

Bonus! Complete the survey and you can opt-in to a draw to win one of five Petro Canada Gas Cards ranging in value from $50-200 (one $200 Gas Card; two $100 Gas Cards; two $50 Gas Cards).

Quick FAQ on the Survey

I did not coach in 2020-21 due to COVID, should I still participate?: YES! The survey focuses on your coaching experience over the last two years. Answering from the perspective of your 2019-20 year is still very helpful.

I lead youth in sport and play but do not call my self a coach, should I still participate?: YES! We define Coach as any person working to develop participants in a sport or physical activity at any stage of their Long Term Development.

How long does the survey take to complete?: Only 15 minutes! There are some longer form questions but they are optional and can be skipped.

How much longer is the survey open, do I still have time?: YES! The survey is open till the end of August.

The results of the first Ontario Coaching Report Card will be made publicly available in early 2022. The Report Card will help identify critical factors affecting the quality of the entire provincial sport system for coaches and be re-evaluated every two years.
