Coaching Netball in Australia

Sport Lived organise people for coaching netball in schools in Australia. We run netball coaching programmes to Melbourne which last for between 12-14 weeks and run from April – late June/ early July

During your coaching netball programme you will coach school teams where you will organise training sessions during the week and prepare them for matches against other schools.  Most people coach U13-U16 teams.  Coaches get between 10 and 15 hours of work per week and are paid between £7 and £12 per hour. Coaching sessions are usually held between 3-6pm Monday – Thursday and between 8am - 12pm on Saturday mornings. 

You will live in 4 star apartments with other Sport Lived participants playing and sport coaching in Melbourne providing you with a ready made group of friends as soon as you arrive.  Most people stay in 2 bedroom apartments and all Sport Lived participants stay in the same complex.

We recommend that people interested in coaching netball in Australia obtain an England Netball Level 1 Coaching Qualification. More information on this qualification and centres where coaching courses are being run can be found at the England Netball website: www.englandnetball.co.uk

You will need to obtain a first aid qualification.  We recommend that people obtain a basic first aid qualification from an organisation such as the St John’s Ambulance. 

Please Note:    If you are unable to obtain a netball coaching or First Aid qualification prior to you departure please let us know.   Some schools are happy to employ people provided they have playing and coaching experience.   We can also enrol you on a coaching and First Aid course when you arrive in Australia.

Should you wish to play as well as coach netball during your programme, we have affiliations with lots of good clubs and can arrange for you to join a club.
