Our PVG process already has an expectation of a degree of free coaching - which seems reasonable. If I ever manage to complete the form, then (as I've said before) I'll happily help out.
There are though, many things to learn from the coaching techniques applied in other activities/sports - and one of those is that there is a cost to parents if they want to see material advancement. That, however, is unlikely to be an issue *IF* only chess were seen to be worth doing - on that, we need much better "PR"/Marketing together with an implicit confidence in the organisation and process of selection.
