National Coaching Strategy

Netball Australia has released a new national direction for coaching with the release of the Coaching Blueprint, which outlines the sport’s plan to achieving ongoing success on and off the court.  The blueprint aims to unite the national coaching community from grassroots to high performance by providing a world leading development system to support netball participation at all levels, and ensure that the coaching community is empowered and well supported.  The Coaching Blueprint includes a Coaches Approach document which outlines the sport’s philosophical approach to coaching – one that promotes player learning and ownership of that learning, through creating player awareness, responsibility and self belief.

Coaching Our Way

In conjunction with the national coaching strategy, Netball Australia has released a free e-learning resource called Coaching Our Way.  It includes four modules of interactive learning designed to get coaches thinking about how to apply the principles of player centered coaching with their unique playing group.  A coach journal tool allows coaches to make notes of their learning and strategies for implementation. A certificate of recognition will be issued upon completion of all four modules.  Coaches will be required to register and log into MyNetball to access the free coaching resource.
