Petition update, 07 June 2007

More details from petition creator

The Government has decided to introduce a sport wide "United Kingdom Coaching Certificate" as a standard recognised qualification for all sports coaches. However this qualification will only be made available and accessible through those organisations recognised by the Sports Council, meaning that the vast majority of groups and individuals within the Martial Arts industry will be excluded.
