Coaches are an integral part of our Netball community having a big impact on the development of our Netball players. As a coach, you have the opportunity to positively impact the experience, the lifelong involvement, and the love of Netball your players and team may have. And the rewards outweigh the obstacles - watching as players grow and develop and start to wok together as a team.
There are opportunities to coach at all levels, from Juniors in Year 1 & 2, through to Premier and Representative teams. We encourage coaches to 'reflect and connect' to assist continued development within their coaching journey and we will ensure we provide the opportunities for our coaches to do so. This will include a focus on Netball NZ Coaching Modules, practical coach development and opportunities to connect with fellow coaches.
The ideal Coach will:
· Nurture a love of Netball
· Coach in a Player-Centred approach
· Growth Mindset
· Focus on skill development, decision making and a nonlinear approach to skill development
· Reinforce ethical approaches to sport and recreation
· Understand they’re in the business of creating not only better players, but better people
· Have a sense of working in a wider coaching community with similar goals.
Whangarei Netball is implementing a Coach Development Group, who will be responsible for managing all aspects of the coach development and training.
