Youth Coaches Pathway

The Youth Coaches initiative delivers customised training in program facilitation and project management for youth coaches to deliver Bounce Club programs in their own community, supported by qualified coaches, youth workers, and athlete mentors. Customised support is provided to coaches to set up bank accounts, tax file numbers, superannuation accounts and understand effective personal budgeting and
employment principles.

 

Coaches receive opportunities for paid employment as coaches within the Bounce Clubs programs to deliver basketball resiliency programs.

The programs aim to improve education outcomes and develop employment pathway opportunities for local coaches including those in remote communities. Using basketball as a means of engagement the coach employment pathways program provides an impacting experience that inspires coaches to set goals and be motivated about their own future.
