Where do we train
Our Coaches and Managers are our greatest asset.
It is through their passion, patience and skill that the talent of our youth is fostered and developed. With an emphasis on quality training, Carss Park Football Club aims to provide a valuable sporting and social experience for all our players and develop talented players.
The selection of Coaches and Managers takes place over the two weeks following final registrations
Each team is required to have 1 Coach & 1 Manager (RTO – Registered Team Official)
If the Club has any ‘available’ coaches they will be appointed as the need arises.
Please indicate your interest on the forms provided at the clubhouse during registration. For coaches / managers, you may also download the required documents from this page, to pre-fill and save time at our registration dates.
There must be a minimum of one (1) Coach registered with every team nominated. This nominated person must carry their registration card at all times when officiating at their team’s games.
The main role of the Team Coach
• Coordinate training sessions
• Game day team selection, strategy & substitutions.
In an effort to provide support for coaches and managers, and to promote skill development in our players, a Basic Grassroots Training Course (Football Australia approved) will be provided free of charge for those who are new to coaching and are wanting to learn. For more experienced coaches, the Junior License will also be available early in the season. Upon completion of either course, a certificate will be issued. Both courses will be conducted by Aytec Genc, the St George Director of Coaching. Dates to be advised.
