Expression of interest in Foundation of Football Course

Please be aware of the following when filling out the form:

Coaches are required to attend all practical components of the course and complete all online sessions through the Football Australia learning centre.
There are minimum 12 and maximum 24 places. Completing this form will not guarantee a place.
The course is conducted over 8 hours and is a practical, on-field course. Depending on numbers and location of participants, sessions are planned for North and North West Tasmania.

The Foundation of Football is aimed at volunteer parents and coaches working with advanced beginner to competent level players or players aged up to approximately fifteen (15) years old. This course is a prerequisite for the Football Australia/AFC C Diploma.

This course primarily targets coaches of children aged 5 to 11 years, however, it is also tailored to beginners and novices, making it suitable for adult teams with limited experience.

The Foundation of Football is a standalone course and not merely a module. The central focus of the course is to empower coaches to establish a safe and enjoyable environment for young players. It offers guidance on conducting engaging training sessions and provides pre-designed training plans for an entire season, alleviating coaches from the task of creating them themselves.

Coaches will participate in practical sessions covering the basics of techniques as well as learning about basic playing principles of the game. The course is mostly practical and not graded, allowing the student to participate in the training sessions if they so choose. The course also promotes participating in group discussions with the goal of exchanging experiences.

More information regarding the courses will be forwarded direct to you through your email contact below.
