Brisbane Netball would like to provide coaches with development opportunities to expand the depth of coaches across the association. The information outlined below details 6 levels of coaching qualifications.
Brisbane Netball strongly recommends all coaches to obtain their Foundation Course as a minimum but we strongly encourage coaches to continue to achieve a higher-level accreditation. The Foundation Coaching Course is a requirement for Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance cover.
It is also encouraged for coaches to complete the umpiring exam to ensure that coaches at all levels have a true and complete understanding and knowledge of the rules.
Non-playing Coaches must also be registered as non-playing officials (unless the coach is also a player with a club). The cost of registering as a non-playing official is $40 per year (from March to March).
We would encourage all coaches to make use of the following links.
