Coach Development Pathway
Posted 17/06/15
Are you an ambitious individual, male or female, who is interested in taking the first step onto the football coaching ladder? If so, then Northend United is the Club for you.
This is an exciting period for our Club and we are on the lookout for new talented coaches to join us on our journey to coaching excellence. Due to a vast increase in player numbers, we plan to field a number of new teams for the 2015/16 season.
As a new coach you will embark on our Club's 'Coach Development Pathway', which consists of guided practical experience under one of our senior coaches, in Club training and formal coaching qualifications. The Club is fully committed to Coach Education and will provide opportunities to attain formal coaching qualifications through the Irish Football Association and Coerver Coaching.
In return for your time, you will receive a rewarding career ladder in coaching with opportunities for progression onto our Parent Club, Wakehurst FC. All initial enquiries should be made in the first instance to John Devlin on 07919 056834
