To be a PlayBook Coach you need to be passionate, have a good understanding of your nominated sport/s, be eligible to work in Australia and provide a valid Working with Children card. In terms of your sporting expertise you’re expected to have 5 years + experience in your sport, as a coach or participant at regional level or beyond. Alternatively, you hold an up to date coaching accreditation. If you have coaching qualification we’ll verify this and add it to your coach profile in the qualifications section. You don’t need any sport specific coaching qualifications (unless that's a requirement for your sport) but you need to have solid sporting experience and expertise. You can be new to coaching.
