Prior to submitting your interest, please take into account the commitment involved in coaching. Club coaching is a 7-8 month commitment and in 2023 we want to ensure that players have access to dedicated coaches who are available during the entire season - including pre-season. We welcome, encourage and will support first time coaches, however, to ensure you are aware of all the expectations of coaching at Palena, please contact
palenapanthers@gmail.comCoaches in 2023 will be expected to hold basic coaching qualifications (Foundation coaching from Netball Australia), encourage players to attend club functions and support fundraising events. Coaches will be expected to endorse the Palena "whole of club" culture and ensure that they, and their players, adhere to the Palena and STNA Codes of Conduct throughout the season.
Palena coaches are to ensure players, parents and supporters of their team are aware that they are expected to behave appropriately and fairly while representing the club.
Two way communication is expected with the relevant HEAD COACH, ROSTER CONVENER and TREASURER. Coaches are to follow directions from these committee members to ensure the team adheres to the high standard of behaviour that the club expects.
