What is Coaching?

The responsibilities of a basketball coach include enhancing player development, creating strategies for the team, instructing players and providing mentorship.

Compliance Requirements

Coaches are required to have a valid Working With Childrens Check, if they are coaching minors or have the possibility to be in the company of minors when coaching. 

There are a number of other compliance resources that can be attained such as ASADA Training and the General Coaching Principles Training on the SportAus website, however these are not compulsory to become a coach.
