Coach appointments

[Guest]

Any news from different clubs who their coaches will be next year?

In some fairness to clubs they can't always have all the assignments done this early when they don't know how many teams/coaching needs/if any coaches are leaving etc. Also they can announce it now, but if coaches quit over the summer it all changes anyway.

If a club has a large supply of coaches you'd mostly be happy with then worry less about specific assignments. If there's only a couple you want and hate all the rest? May not be worth taking the chance. If the club seems to have a high coach turnover rate that's another red flag.

What age groups is he taking?

Well, considering he has been Nando's assistant coach for the 07's, and there is no U16 at TA...I bet he leaves for a year to coach the 07's for OPFC.

Remember that he had the 07's at OPFC prior to him going to the TA. Parents were less than happy he left.

The 2007's are very happy with Vytas and would be unhappy with another change. Vytas is very well liked and an excellent coach. No reason for him to leave this role.

CDP will coach either the 08's or 09's

Why would you tryout for a team if you don't know the coach?

Or both. 09s maybe since they are moving into the TA selection year. We lost to them. Have some good players.

CDP won’t be the 07 coach

09s from all clubs have already been selected. They are in the discovery program

Lol...keep telling yourself that. They will cut your kiddo in a heartbeat for a player that maybe has changed their mind.

[Guest]

discovery program is not TA despite what you put on Juniors IG

[Guest]

Connor is coaching the 2008 OPFC team. Alex is stepping down.

Exactly, they will learn the hard way

[Guest]
