where is current south coach going ?
under 23 maybe ?

Anyone have any news on any other clubs div 1 coaches? Some must have been appointed by now I'd imagine...

Geoff deserves this after the great success he has had with the 16 Boys.

Sturt Boys
12s = ?
14s = Dean Nyberg
16s = Mike C
18s = Nathan Vaughan

Chrisan. Ex-Forestville. Believe he assisted a state team this year too?

Inexperienced lineup but 2 of them have Classics medals & state champs & Mike has done well with the div 2s this year.

They're all about the rotation policy & it seems to have worked for them in recent years.

Anyone know of any U23 appointments?

'Success at junior level has nothing to do with the ability of a coach. Its completely about the ability of the athlete, in this case the children in the team.'

WOW - are you for real?

keep on believing that anon. what a load of crap.

any other clubs coaches announced?

Southern Tigers

Boys
U10 Wayne Stringer
U12 Lisa Gill
U14 Greg Olbrich
U16 Ryan Meakin
U18 Leigh Scott

Girls
U10 TBA
U12 Ray Wickstein
U14 TBA
U16 Brenton Davies
U18 Boti Nagy

I think there still looking to fill the TBA roles?

I'm pretty sure Norwood's under 12's recruited pretty hard this year but they didnt do well when it came classics time, shouldnt they have done well if they went out and recruited the best kids?

I'm sure thats why Sturt have done so well in interstate tournaments. And why so many of their players have made it at national and internationals level.

I'm sure that the world over, coaching isnt all that necessary and shouldn't be bothered with. We should just all go out and run up and down and its only up to the players inate ability.

No need to teach man to man, pivots, non-preffered skills etc, it can only coe naturally.

Yes some groups of players learn quicker or better than others, some individuals improve more because they have a greater ability.

But plenty of players have improved after receiving better coaching. And that is why Sturt try to give their players the necessary skills to leave the club and move onto the AIS, College or National league even though the club may go without their service.

As much as I 'dislike' Sturt, you have to admire their structure and success over a continued period of time. They must be doing something right.
I know all of the poaching stories and SASI & State favourtism, but they have the score on the board.
Comments such as "the worst coaching group for a long time" before the current season has ended, is an ambitious statement without giving the group a chance.
Let's bash Sturt if / when they go downhill with these bad coaches, who would be on massive wages- LOL

The recent U14 girls SASI intake only 2 were sturt girls - so where is the favoritism there, the kids are chosen by NG he plays no favourites if the kids are good by his standards they get a go if not they dont. Simple as that.

Sturt look to have 2 State assistant coaches with a classics medalist. and with their div coaches probably being better than most clubs div 1 coaches, I for 1 am sure that they will do quite well.

What other clubs will have as many succesful coaches in place?

I guess that they find these boys out on the trees in the backyard. And that they dont develop any skills.

Keep pushing that line, and I agree, your best kids will come to Sturt. Not because of anything but the fact that you obviously dont believe in skills development and the best kids want and need it.

It really simple people, if you provide a good service to players, they won't leave. I certainly wouldn’t pay upward of $1000 a year for my child to be taught by someone who clearly is not up to the standard of coaching Div 1 - would you? Can you really blame players and parents for wanting to be in a basketball education environment?
It astounds me that unsuccessful clubs continue to blame successful clubs for poaching their players. Stop sooking and take some action and stop allowing clearly unsuitable coaches to coach juniors. Does your club have a junior basketball manager who is empowered to make basketball decisions? If not, why?
While non basketball people keep making basketball decisions your clubs basketball program will never improve.
What is your club doing to develop their coaches to develop their players? Help educate the coaches so they are better equipped to teach their players.
or

West Girls coaches may look like this...

U10 - Jodie Bell
U12 - Alice Gee
U14 - Mike Kazamoir
U16 - Corey Maclean
U18 - Jason Champion

Who will be coaching at Norwood and North next season?

#067

I'll answer your question, even though I know you were just trying to be smart, and didn't really want to know.

There are big changes to Norwood's Div 1 line-up on the boy's side. All filled though, so no vacancy.

What are some of the changes you speak of?

I don't see U23 being an overly desirable job. I don't expect there'd be a queue of quality junior coaches lining up for it. Probably the same sorts of people who do reserves.

It was a bit disappointing to hear that a very qualified coach took his son from 1 club to another 'only' because his son wanted to be part of his dad's club 'culture'. This was understandable, but said father was offered the opportunity to coach his own son, but declined because it was not deemed to be in best interest of the child.
After moving and taking players, why is he now waiting to see which team his son is selected in, so that he can coach this team???

Sounds like double dutch to me what club?

Boti doing Under 23 girls at Southern

have heard a couple of interesting rumours about some coaches for the north/eastern suburb teams. anyone have any information on who has been appointed?

well how about sharing your rumours Shafeeq

i dont really want to start anything when these rumours might not be true. id just like to hear what is actually happening at those clubs.

Shafeeq... This whole website is rumours brother! Just spill the beans...

well i heard at norwood sapwell might coach 14 1s to do his own kid and i heard an ex sturt coach will do 16s but i dont know who.

can anyone shed some light?

shafeeq - wrong about sapwell, right about the ex-sturt coach

Cmon whose the ex-sturt coach - has he flown the coup this year? coaching girls or boys??

who is the ex sturt coach though? is he well known/recent? and who is doing the 14 1s then?

Hasn't coached at sturt for a while but had been around as a parent.

Triton is (w)right.

Interesting gather thats the boys hes doing

ah i get it!

so who is doing 14 boys if sapwell isnt?

Norwood 18 Boys & Girls: Berry & Schroeder

Centrals will announce their Div 1 coaches soon.

Players are always welcome at the Club, especially those from the northern country areas, those residing in the northern suburbs, and those willing to take their basketball to district level. The sign on day is Sunday August 29 at STARplex and if you have an inquiry, just contact either one of the coaching directors.

Girls Coaching Director
Trudy Ireland M: 0428 859 069

Boys Coaching Director
Andrew Jantke M:0410 759 280

Any word on Sturts div 2 coaches on the boys side & any of their girls coaches?

Archer ,Centrals should/need to put a post for appointments instead of deep inside a others post?Just some advice for free?

Given Norwood's recruiting for Under 12 this year it appears that they are going backwards results wise. Every result is getting closer.....

Anyone know whos got the u/23s gig at west????

He means the coach is magic
not hes from magic

Shotclock, if you (or anyone) is interested in any of the Lions coaching appointments for 2010/11 feel free to email [email protected].

West and Magic seem to be going along nicely with good mix of magic coaches involved Well done West. Getting experience on board as well as open hand

the spirit of co-operation is what is to be emphasised for BOTH clubs, finding a way thru perceived obstacles and working together to benefit ALL kids wanting to play district basketball in western suburbs

here is hoping if this happens woodville can dissolve and it will make things easier for the western suburbs (no offence to woodville)

come on people who is coaching u23 someone must know something

Spadge keen at west big tip

Juno 36: who is Spadge???

I think most clubs would have one of the ABL ass. coaches doing the job, That would be the smart thing to do so they could get feed back....

RIP Tigers

When you have to appoint 13y grade 7 kids as coaches, and dont see any problems with it.......
enough said

Most clubs have a list on their websites. If you look at the squad lists, the head coach is usually listed there.

RIP Tigers, i dont think so. More teams means more coaches required, all sides struggle for coaches div2 and under, good on them for having foresight and having a go.

Not but it sure feels good when you do!!!

Norwood has appointed Kahli Burns U14 Div 1 coach due to her great season last year.

#031 - Makes sense, she won State Champs with the U12s last season. A great effort for a relatively unproven coach. Good luck to her, I'm sure she'll do a great job.
