Taking the first step and coaching at Collingwood’s Junior Domestic Program is a great pathway to developing your own Coaching career.
We encourage you to take the next step and gain further knowledge and skills through an external program with Basketball Victoria.
Community Coaching Course
This two hour training session is based around teaching skills and drills to run at training sessions for junior players. Suitable for junior players, new coaches or experienced coaches, looking for drills to run at their training sessions to improve their athletes.
