This is a big call out to all parents, family, friends and other contacts to apply for a coaching role in 2020 at Blackburn Juniors Footy. You may be from outside our Burners community but you are more than welcome to apply to join our wonderful club.

We are looking for:
– some footy knowledge;
– communication skills;
– a positive role model;
– a willingness to develop and improve all players within a team; and

We will provide our coaches with significant support, including:
– paying for coaches to undertake the AFL Victoria level 1 coaching course;
– direct insight into our Junior development pathways.
– providing external coaching expertise and seminars to develop our coaches;
