COACH DEVELOPMENT IN SELWYN

The Selwyn Netball Centre is committed to supporting all it’s members with coach development. The Selwyn Coaching Convener for 2018 is Olivia Macfarlane. 

The Selwyn Netball Centre and all it’s member club’s are affiliated to Netball New Zealand which provides a Coach Development Programme for us to follow.  The details of this development programme are on the Netball NZ website in the “Coachforce Coach Development Framework Manual”.

Selwyn run NNZ workshops and coaching modules. The calendar of these are on the Selwyn website.  Details of courses will be notified to all clubs via the monthly report and will also be on the website. Coaches must register for all courses by sending a registration form to the Selwyn Netball Centre at least 3 days prior to each course. The form is on the forms page on the website.

Selwyn will provide training for the Star Helpers in the Year 1&2 netball programme and training for the Year 3&4 coaches.
