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. For under-16s, technique and bodyweight control should come well before load — ask how the coach progresses weight.

• Ask for an accredited qualification (UKSCA, ASCC or an equivalent degree-level background) • Check the programme is written for the athlete's sport and season, not a generic gym plan • If there's an injury history, confirm the coach will speak to your physio On CoachSpot you can filter by Edinburgh and by strength & conditioning, read reviews from other local families, and message a coach before booking a trial session.
