An update from Gordon Tulloch – Club Technical Director – on our 2021 Coach Education:

We recently held another successful Skills Training Course – with this being our 4th Coach Education Course for 2021.

As a Club we have focussed on investing in our Coaching staff during 2021 by aiming to get all our coaches up to speed with the coaching knowledge relevant to the players they are coaching.

This year we have held a Miniroos Course, 2 x Skills Training Courses and a Game Training Course. In addition to this, several of our coaches have attended the C-License course during October/November and have returned, ready for the 2022 season.

This recent Skills Training course was facilitated by Martin Docherty (from Football Queensland) and our Coaches were really pleased with the Course content and they enjoyed the practical field sessions. We would like to thank the Coaches who attended the course and the North Star Players who came down to help with the practical sessions. 

As TD of North Star FC, it was really pleasing to see the way all the coaches in the Club have embraced the Coach Education, preparing them towards 2022 and the future. The North Star FC Committee have been brilliant in supporting the Coach Education, as all the cost of the courses the coaches have attended has been fully covered by the Club. To put this into perspective, over 50 North Star coaches have attended at least one of these courses during 2021, even up-skilling from Skills Training / Game Training to the C-License this year. 

In addition to the up-skilling of our coaches, we have been very successful in recruiting an excellent group of coaches (with NPL and higher coaching experience) for our new U13-U18 FQPL Development Teams.  Our players will be in good hands in 2022. The majority of our U8-U12 SAP Academy coaches have attended the recent C-License Course and are now better prepared to take our players to another level. 

On a different note - to players/parents of players who have still not found a Club or would like to join a well-structured and organised Club, and if you are a talented player or just starting out on your football journey, we have positions available in every playing group, including specific positions in our U13-U18 FQPL Development teams. We pride ourselves in being a family friendly Club. If you are interested in joining us for the 2022 season, then please register online and keep an eye out on our website/Facebook/Instagram for information on trials/pre-season training. Please get in touch if you have any enquiries about any of our teams.
