If the timing of these doesn’t work with your calendar, don’t worry as Capital Football plan on running these again in different locations and at different times during the year.

At OJFC we want ALL of our coaches to have undertaken the Intro to Junior Coaching course before the start of the season….take this opportunity if you can. From U9 grade onwards, it is very useful to have the NZF Junior Level 1 award too.

Join us to find out more information about the upcoming season

Please join us on Wednesday 10th April (7:30pm), at Crofton Downs Primary School for an overview of the upcoming football season. The session is designed to give you the information you’ll need to get on with your season.

Our Fun Football Grades (FK, U7, U8) will get into the nuts and bolts of what to expect each session – how it will run, where it is held, what you will need, how you can help. We will also discuss why we run the sessions the way we do.

Our Mini and Youth Football Grades (U9 – U15) will go over some basics of the season ahead – weekly games, practices, participating as player, volunteer, spectator…and plenty more!

There will be an opportunity for Q + A at each session.

The evening will be facilitated by our Club Captain, Justin Snarski, along with help from our Grade Coordinators.

Please RSVP your intent to attend, by emailing your Grade Coordinator.

Our Coaching Coordinator, Merrick Keenan will be facilitating three workshops designed for all our coaches (both new and returning).

Merrick will cover a range of topics – from the practical aspects of planning and progressing your team’s training throughout the season, to tips on how to connect, engage and inspire your footballers, all aligned with the Onslow Way and R.I.S.E principals.
