Northern NSW Football have scheduled a Senior Coaching License course for 2-3 March 2013 for interested coaches. Here the particulars from an e-mail we received:

"Please be advised that we have established a “live-in” Senior Licence Coaching Course to be held at the Coffs Conference & Camping Centre on the 2nd & 3rd March 2013.

The structure of the course will follow that of a Senior Licence Course with Certificate I & II being completed over these 2 days. The assessment part of the course will take place back at the respective coaches club with the team they coach. It will be up to the coach to arrange a suitable time with their respective Football Manager for this assessment to take place.

It is our intention to arrange 2 Country teams to come in on a Saturday evening to play a match with groups of coaches being given specific areas to coach during the match to make the course more game related. e.g. playing out, defence, attacking etc.

I would encourage your respective zones to invite coaches who may be coaching your representative teams to undertake this course if they are not Senior Licence qualified.

There are limited spots available due to the intense nature of the course.

The cost of the course is $280 which includes the normal course cost of $136, one nights accommodation at the centre, and 4 meals being Lunch & Dinner on Day 1 and Breakfast & Lunch on Day 2.

We will be advertising this course on the web pages on Friday this week so if you have your own coaches who you want to complete the course please have them register at the link below ASAP and arrange payment with Nicole at reception in our office.
