Roadshow Details

The AFL Vic Junior Coaching Curriculum Roadshow is a series of training workshops focused on The AFL Junior Coaching Curriculum (JCC). The prescribed training sessions make it simple and easy for parent and volunteer junior coaches to deliver. The program has been developed with the support of industry experts across coaching and education and has been incorporated into the Rookie Me – RM Coach platform, an activities and training sessions library, available to all coaches through their CoachAFL Membership.

The Junior Coaching Curriculum has been developed to increase player transition and retention from NAB AFL Auskick to Junior football. The key objectives are to:

• Improve the quality of coaching at Junior levels and thus subsequent experiences of the kids that play junior footy,

• Build on the NAB AFL Auskick philosophy of high energy and high touch sessions using small sided games,

• Provide national consistency in the standard and delivery of training content for Junior footy and

• Ensure every training session is Safe, Organised, Engaging and Fun.

Coaches will be supported through resources including:

• A JCC Guidebook outlining the philosophies behind the curriculum

• A video series to further educate and support coaches around the JCC and Principles of Play

Lead Your Way 2025

By Zac Hedin • December 3, 2024

The Lead Your Way Program is back, giving women and gender-diverse people volunteering in community football leadership the opportunity to level up their skills and network. If you're a current committee-level volunteer at a community football club in our Metropolitan Leagues or Country Regions, this program is for you! Bronwyn McGorlick from the Wangaratta Rovers Female Football Club was a participant in 2024 and had this to say about the program - "It's been really great to connect with all the other leaders involved in footy. Sometimes you can be involved in your won club and not realise that there is this massive network of people out there, so I think that's been the best thing about it".
