These are exciting times in rugby with England hosting the Women’s Rugby World Cup in August 2010 and with the implementation of a new player pathway.
The Rugby Football Union for Women is looking to appoint Head and Assistant coaches for U15, U18 and Senior squads across the 4 Divisions for the 2010 / 2011 season.
Working closely with the Divisional Talent Development Officer (DTDO), the Divisional coaches will have a major role in the delivery of the Women and Girls’ Divisional rugby programme.
The Divisional coaches will be responsible for the planning and the delivery of the Divisional trials and selecting the Divisional squad. Coaches will be required to plan and deliver Divisional training sessions and training camps as well as planning and co-ordinating team preparation on match days.
The Divisional coaches will play an integral role in facilitating and delivering player development within the programme and will be responsible for conducting individual player development plans with selected Divisional players and providing player feedback.
Successful applicants will demonstrate excellent organisation and communication skills as well as being able to work well within a team, as coaches will be required to plan and organise various sessions and must be able to liaise effectively with relevant staff and the DTDO.
Divisional coaches will be required to work on weekends and some evenings as well as being required to travel within the Division and across England for fixtures.
All applicants are requested to complete the RFUW equity monitoring questionnaire, and return this with their application.
