Coaching and Team Manager
Have you thought about coaching a team? Coaching a netball team is incredibly rewarding and a fun challenge. We’re currently looking for coaches for the upcoming season, and as a volunteer-run club, we truly rely on your valuable help.
Coaching is a volunteer role and a season-long commitment to your team. You don’t need prior experience—just a love for the sport, a fun personality, and a passion for teaching youth the importance of sportsmanship and teamwork.
Palm Beach Netball Club (PBNC) will provide you with everything you need, including a team kit (balls, bibs, training equipment, first aid kit, etc.) and resources for training plans, game rotations, and coaching development sessions and clinics throughout the season. Our Coaching Convenor will organize these activities and be there to support you every step of the way.
Join us and make a difference in our netball community!
Managers
Managing a netball team is a fantastic way to get involved with your child’s team and help ensure the season runs smoothly. From organising the scoring to entering the team in carnivals, the Manager plays a crucial and valued role.
If you’re interested in becoming a manager, please reach out to us with any questions. We recognize how important and special you are, and we provide all the resources, support, and training you need to excel in this role.
These are the compulsory requirements to be completed if you wish to become a coach/manager.
Blue Card
Once appointed your coaching or managing role, you will be emailed by a PBNC committee member to confirm your current blue card status and if required will be given the link to complete a new or renewal application form. Blue cards are valid for 3 years unless suspended or cancelled. There are no costs involved in applying for a Blue Card as a volunteer.
