Hello and thanks for taking a little time to find out more about me, Chris Lowe. I am a FA Regional Coach Development Officer working across the West Midlands, with a focus on Physical Education support and development. Previously I was the FA PE Officer in Lancashire. Prior to working for the FA, I worked in Education as a PE teacher for 16 years, culminating in a role as Director of Sport for an Academy Trust. The purpose of my role is to support and develop more coaches and teachers, more often through inspiring opportunities. As part of the FA PE Team, we aim to provide world class Coach and Teacher development to support the delivery of Physical Education, School Sport & Physical Activity, by means of a dynamic, blended learning experience. I am still an active grassroots football coach and have been working with my son's team for 7 years and I have loved watching the players develop both as players and people. I have also enjoyed the relationships built with both players, coaches, and families. I was also a PE teacher for 16 years where I coached many school, district, and regional sporting teams. Our teams' ambition is to empower coaches to fulfil their potential, to provide inspirational opportunities, and to nurture more skilful players. I love working with and supporting coaches, teachers and players building positive relationships to help them develop. I look forward to potentially meeting and working with you.
