Upcoming Coach Workshop: Transition from MiniRoos to Full Pitch Football

miniroos transition workshop

 

Pittwater will be hosting a new Coach Workshop later this week focused on helping coaches work with teams making the transition from MiniRoos 9v9 football to full pitch 11v11 football, including teaching players how to use larger spaces in training, as well as how to approach formations and set pieces. 

Two weeks later, another newly confirmed workshop will be hosted at Kitchener Park based on teaching players positioning, spreading out and teamwork.

These coach education opportunities aim to provide ongoing guidance and advice throughout the season, and to compliment official FFA coaching courses, with topics based on feedback received on what coaches would find valuable. Other available workshops are listed in the table below.
