Our Founder’s Story
Simphiwe Nkosi, the visionary behind Coaches on the Move NPC, is not defined by adversity but by the transformative power of his journey. His unique life experiences have illuminated the path to change, offering a beacon of hope and opportunity to underserved communities.
Born and raised in an underserved community, Simphiwe faced the same challenges that many in such environments do – limited resources, scarce opportunities, and an uncertain future. However, it was his unwavering passion for sports and a belief in its potential to drive change that set him apart.
In a twist of fate, Simphiwe was scouted from his humble beginnings and given the opportunity to attend a well-resourced school. This transition not only changed his life but also exposed the stark disparities in sports development between affluent and underserved communities.
Simphiwe's journey as an elite athlete was remarkable, but it was his transition from athlete to coach that ignited the spark for Coaches on the Move NPC. He recognized that his unique background positioned him as a bridge between these two worlds, offering a valuable perspective on where the gaps in sports development truly lay.
Driven by his lived experiences, Simphiwe embarked on a mission to bridge the gap in sports development. He realized that the real power lay in coaching and mentorship, in nurturing not just athletes but also the coaches themselves. Simphiwe's vision extended beyond the sports field; it encompassed the broader canvas of social change and empowerment.
Simphiwe's commitment to this vision has been unwavering, and he has demonstrated its effectiveness through his work beyond borders. In Zambia, he built a fully functioning football academy, identifying and training coaches who have now become junior national coaches. This hands-on experience showcased that the Coaches on the Move NPC approach is not just theory; it's a practical solution that can unlock potential on a national scale.
Simphiwe's academic pursuits complement his practical work. Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Sports Science, his research focuses on the holistic development of athletes and the pivotal role of coaching in maximizing their potential.
