COACH DEVELOPMENT

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • No. You don’t need prior coaching experience.

    Many of our coaches start with no formal background at all. What matters more is:

    • a positive attitude

    • reliability

    • willingness to learn

    • putting children first

    The club supports new coaches with:

    • guidance from experienced coaches

    • access to FA courses where appropriate

    • clear session structures and expectations

    You won’t be thrown in unprepared, and you won’t be expected to know everything on day one. Coaching is learned by doing, with support.

    If you care about creating a positive environment and are open to developing your skills, experience is optional.

  • Yes. The club supports and pays for coaching courses, where appropriate.

    We invest in our coaches because better-supported coaches create better experiences for players. Course support is usually linked to:

    • commitment to the club

    • the role you’re coaching in

    • applying learning back into sessions

    We’re happy to invest in people who want to invest their time and energy into the club.

    Details around specific courses, timelines, and expectations are discussed with coaches directly, so everyone’s clear before anything is booked.

  • Yes. All coaches are supported.

    Support comes in a few practical forms:

    • guidance from experienced coaches

    • help with planning and structuring sessions

    • access to shared resources and club frameworks

    • ongoing advice as situations come up, not just at the start

  • As a coach, you’re expected to:

    • attend weekly training sessions

    • be available for matches where applicable

    • communicate reliably with players, parents, and the club

    • commit for a season, not just a few weeks

    We understand people have jobs, families, and lives. That’s normal. What doesn’t work is:

    • regularly cancelling last minute

    • drifting in and out

    • disappearing when things get busy

    Players rely on routine. Other coaches rely on you turning up. Consistency matters more than perfection.

    If you can commit your time reliably and responsibly, we’ll support you.
