About the role

Our focus for the programme is to ensure the students get high quality exposure to coaching and raise the profile of girls' football. This is to include technical development, maintaining match fitness, and tactical awareness. A competitive desire to be the best is of course important to the success of the School, however the student's development and enjoyment are of paramount importance here at Pipers.



As a coach we would expect you to have a detailed knowledge of the game, a good standard of playing experience and the confidence to lead football coaching sessions across Years 6-13. The role requires flexibility, good humour and a commitment to work hard as part of a strong team. Most of all, you will need to be able to demonstrate initiative and be a self-starter. The Football Coach may also be required to assist at football tournaments throughout the season, subject to availability. The successful candidate would work with the Director of Sport, and other departmental members. The Director of Sport and her colleagues will provide full support to the successful candidate.
