Capital Football would like to provide a short update to clubs and coaches, on changes to the Community Coaching Pathway for 2024.
Having undergone a review into the Community Coaching Pathway last year, New Zealand Football (NZF) is set to launch a revised structure for the coming season. The essence of the community coaching courses will remain the same whereby coaches come together to learn and gain a relevant qualification. The following is the main points:
We are excited by the changes which will provide a timely refresh for community coaching courses. It will offer coaches the opportunity to learn in their own time, whilst still holding onto the most important part of a course: the in-person engagement with peers, educators and the quality conversations which take place at those times.
We will soon have a coach education calendar which will be featured here on our website. We also welcome clubs to get in touch should they like to arrange dates any courses or if you have any queries.
