Any coach working 1-to-1 with under-18s in the UK should hold an enhanced DBS check and a current safeguarding certificate. On CoachSpot both are mandatory — a coach's profile can't go live without them, and the verified badge on the profile means we've seen and reviewed the certificates directly. Speed work needs a full warm-up and genuine rest between reps — a coach rushing recovery is a red flag.

• Ask what the coach measures — timing gates or a phone-timed 10m split beats 'he looked quicker' • For team-sport athletes, check the session includes change of direction, not just straight-line sprinting • Confirm rest periods are long: quality speed work means fewer reps, not more On CoachSpot you can filter by Liverpool and by sprint & speed, read reviews from other local families, and message a coach before booking a trial session.
