Hi everyone

I'm a Level 2 qualified football coach and I'm looking for work in the London area. I've applied to the pro clubs and I'm awaiting a response. However, I would love to work in schools too as a P.E. Co-ordinator. Can anyone point me in the right direction or contact me if you have a suitable vacancy.

Cheers to all and hope you're having a great 2007 so far!

Anthony

This ain't a job site m8, go to monster or summit!

Darren Addick - like the Charlton Addicks - useless!!!

Level 2 means |Football in the Community type work, some academies may take on helpers one night a week. Opportunities for full time work with that alone are virtually impossible.
Working at a club often comes down to past playing experiences, I know a Uefa A coach who only coaches one team at the academy - u13s. Yes he does other stuff but he has to.

Becoming a PE co - ordinator would mean becoming a teacher, adequately qualified in a number of sports - particularly football, rugby, basketball and trampolining. On top of the you need a PGCE to teach, so top up your degree if this is the route you want to take.
Alternatively some schools(a minority) employ PE technicians and support staff. These tend to be short term contracts and pretty low pay - like what I'm on as I am a learning progress tutor for Maths.

Chase the dream, but bear in mind many people have the same dream and have many qualifications alongside it.

dont get me started on Darren A-Swearing removed steve020

Ian has got it pretty much spot on!
If you are looking for full-time employment I advise you to enrol on a UEFA 'B' course ASAP (if you feel ready to take it). The coaching industry is a VERY saturated market so you will need something to give you that edge over the competition. Most clubs are in need of community coaches at certain times of year but it depends what you wish to do. Let us know what you want from a job? Are you happy just to be coaching or do you prefer coaching certiain age ranges or abilities?

Sorry fellas my fault I didn't mean to show you both up as brainless, uneducated Swearing removed steve020 that try and act as if they know a lot more than they actually DO!!!! F OFF THE PAIR OF YOU!

Darren - you sound like a very frustrated young man.
The lad asked for some advice, some help. Neither of us claimed to be gods or senior managers, in fact I'm the furthest from it. But we tried to give him some information that we do know of.

Now you ask him, who helped the most?

here here!

there was no need to be rude to the guy, if you can't or won't help him just dont post anything and leave it to those that can and will!

I feel my response was sufficient end of story I'm not going to bother replying to you two idiots anymore because your just so full of it and cshipley all you do is talk utter bull shite!!

i'd feel quite embarrased if i were you!

How about you don't reply to ANYTHING at all and keep these forums free of your bad language and your childish unprovoked attacks on people merely asking other coaches for advice and/or help!

But was I talking to you? NO Did u decide to give your 2 pennys worth? yes

Unprovoked? Ok let me quote this from you



I think you the one who should feel stupid now!

this would be the unprovoked I was referring to!



You mentioned me by name mate!


I think you meant to type "I think your* the one who should feel stupid now!"
Stupid eh?

Ok number 1 - I WAS NOT TALKING TO YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE BUT YOU FELT THE URGE TO SAY SOMETHING!

Number 2 and 3 - OF COURSE I SAID YOUR NAME, I WAS TALKING TO YOU, YOU PLANK!!

Number 4 - NAH NOT STUPID JUST A GENERAL TYPO, BOTHERED!

make your mind up little boy
