Nothing wrong with Dads at this age. The vast majority of coaches at JDL have their child in the team.Originally Posted by mic22
I have a question about coaching at JDL level (sorry if it's not the right topic): what is a reasonable expectation for a JDL coach in the u10-u12 range?
Is it acceptable (or accepted) for it to be "just" a parent, passionate about the game but not necessarily qualified as a football coach?
Are there any requirements in terms of qualifications (courses, certificates, etc.)
Are there any guidelines from NNSW?
Can anyone share their experiences with coaches in this age bracket?
Cheers
This year a coach without the Skills Training Certificate will not be allowed on the touchline without being alongside an appropriately qualified person.
C License is recommended/required for some clubs but isn't essential until NPL Youth.
