Youth Development League 2021
In 2021 Central Otago region will have two squads in the Football South Development league (FSDL) run by COFA. The Central United squads will be made up with players born in 2004 to 2008.
COFA is looking for coaches, assistant coaches and managers for these teams.
We are seeking head and assistant coaches for both age groups. This is a great opportunity for coaches that want to take their coaching to the next level and work within a coaching team with the most committed players in Central Otago. Coaching these teams will help create a solid pathway in Central Otago to the pinnacle leagues in New Zealand.
The coaching staff will be working collaboratively with FDO Thomas van Hees regarding session planning and delivery. Should your schedule be limited we still want to hear from you. We are building a coach group with a diverse range of skill sets that will benefit both players and coaches.
