COACHING CORNER

with SPJFC

"The journey you are currently on or about to begin as a coach is one of the most challenging but satisfying involvements in our great game of Australian Rules Football. There are no doubts that the COACH is the gatekeeper to both the participation and development of all players at all levels. Therefore it is paramount that you as the coach are prepared to learn and equip yourself with the information that will assist you in being an effective coach. Remember be consistent and treat all players equally helping to ensure an enjoyable environment for all. Good luck in your coaching and most of all enjoy the experience it has to offer".
