Coaching Team
Our coaching-focused program is designed to emphasize training and fun. Our team consists of senior and junior coaches, along with coaching assistants.
Our coaching staff includes senior coaches who are accredited by the Australian Sports Commission and Athletics Australia. Several of our junior coaches are former competitors from Mosman Athletics who have enjoyed our coaching style and are developing valuable leadership and communication skills by coaching others.
We conduct in-house coach development courses each season to help grow our junior coaches and coaching assistants, with active participation and guidance from our senior coaches.
Creating a safe environment is very important to us. All our senior and junior coaches have a Working with Children Check (WWCC), which is mandatory for anyone who works or volunteers in child-related roles in NSW.
