The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will be coming to Basildon.

Prince William and Kate Middleton will be coming to Basildon Sporting Village on Tuesday.

The couple will visit Coach Core Essex to meet new apprentices, hear from graduates, and learn how the scheme in Essex is engaging a diverse local community with sport.

Coach Core Essex has been running for almost three years, showing growth and building strong partnerships with local organisations year after year.

Their Royal Highnesses will meet apprentices working with two of these partner organisations: Sport for Confidence and South Essex Gymnastics club, who have been involved with Coach Core Essex since its inception and have subsequently employed multiple apprentices.

The Duke and Duchess will meet new Coach Core apprentices, as well as some of the 30 plus graduates of the programme, before joining in with their coaching sessions, including tennis and indoor athletics.

Their Royal Highnesses will also part in a game of Boccia, which is one of the sports provided by Sport for Confidence, a social enterprise that provides sporting opportunities to individuals who face barriers to participation.

Their Royal Highnesses will then walk through to the gymnastics centre, which is the home of South Essex Gymnastics Club.

The Duke and Duchess will be able to watch Olympic standard gymnasts in training as well as a pre-school session run by Coach Core apprentices and graduates.

Established by The Royal Foundation in 2012, Coach Core aims to harness the power of sport, and its ability to change lives and empower young people.

Driven by a desire to build upon the legacy of the Olympic Games, Coach Core was created by The Royal Foundation to inspire young people who are not in education or employment through sport, and create the next generation of sports coaches who will themselves go on to inspire their communities for many more generations to come.
