As part of Volleyball England's Regional Talent Development Program (RTDP), Yorkshire Volleyball has four youth squads that train together, culminating with the Inter Regional Championships. Yorkshire Volleyball are working at enhancing the RTDP to provide the best possible opportunities in coach education and development. We would like the most talented coaches in the region to be involved in the program.
Regional Squad Staff
Head Coaches
Each squad has a Head Coach who is appointed by Yorkshire Volleyball. The Head Coach is responsible for the squad's training program and has a strong influence over the choice of assistant coaches and squad manager. Head Coaches should hold at least a Volleyball England Level 2 qualification and should be actively working with young players.
Assistant Coaches
Assistant Coaches will work together with the squad's Head Coach at the training sessions and at the Inter Regional Championships. We would particularly like to hear from coaches that are interested in developing their coaching skills over a long term in the regional program and by attending Volleyball England coaching courses. Assistant Coaches should hold a Volleyball England Level 1/UKCC Level 1 or be willing to obtain it shortly.
Team Managers
Team Managers will work with both the squad's Head Coach and the Youth Development Officer to keep the squad organised. This will involve communicating with players, ensuring that the correct paperwork is filled, etc. These things are essential to ensure that the training sessions can run as smoothly as possible and the coaches can concentrate on actually coaching the players, rather than chasing paperwork!
These positions provide a fantastic opportunity to work with our region's young and talented athletes.
If you are interested in getting involved in any way, please contact David Roberts at volleyball@dnasport.com.
Please note that in line with Volleyball England and Yorkshire Volleyball guidelines, all personnel will be required to obtain a Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) check (free of charge through Volleyball England).
