FQ Coaches Lab
The FQ Coaches Lab provides a valuable opportunity for community coaches, Club Coach Coordinators and those who have recently completed a C Licence to gain extra advice and support, with a key focus on session design and delivery. The informal workshop format will allow coaches in attendance to be grouped in order to receive tailored guidance based on the age and level of the players they’re coaching.
CPD Hours
As mandated in the AFC Coaching Convention, from 1st January 2019 all Football Australia Advanced Coaching Licences are valid (accredited) for three consecutive years. New licenses will be issued for three years, and existing licenses will be revalidated for three years when re-validation is due.
