FEMALE COACH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME 2017
Capital Football is committed to the ongoing development of female coaches in Wellington
in order to support the growth and sustainability of women’s football in the region. The aim
of the Female Coach Development Programme (FCDP) is to increase the quantity and quality
of female coaches in the region, by creating an improved female coaching culture that is
attractive to female coaches.
The FCDP aims to develop a cohort of female coaches over the age of 16 who have a desire
to pursue coaching at or above Federation Talent Centre level within the next two years.
The FCDP will create a support network for female coaches where they can gain knowledge,
share ideas and receive support on a regular basis. The FCDP will assist coaches who wish to
take their coaching to a higher level with viable opportunities and pathways.
The programme will include formal and informal education for female coaches, including;
New Zealand Football Coaching Courses, FIFA Courses, Sport Wellington Seminars, practical
workshops, session observation and 1 on 1 mentoring opportunities.
