For those interested in starting their coaching journey or in their first 2 years of coaching
Wanting to start coaching or accelerate your coaching abilities? The U14 Coach Development Programme has 40 positions available to those with zero to two years coaching experience, wanting to learn and grow in-line with the CBA’s Style of Coaching.
Successful applicants will receive hands on support from trained CBA coach developers whilst they “co-coach” in the U14 4X4 or 3X3 development programmes from August 16th to September 21st.
Practices will be planned and lead by some of the best coaches in the country until coaches are confident enough to plan and deliver their own.
Coaches will also have reviews during 45min classrooms sessions, to prepare them for each practice and further a key coaching concept each week.
Schedule:
Venue: Parakiore Sports Center
Times: Vary depending on programme you coach in, but generally a 2 hour block.
Expressions of interest to join the 2026 U14 Coach Development programme are now open. The full programme can be found here, if you are able to fully commit and ready to accelerate your coaching journey, apply here.
Applications close July 17th.
Applications are open to everyone, however we particularly encourage Year 11-13 high school basketball players wanting to learn the basics and best practices of coaching AND parents wanting to learn or develop coaching abilities. All programme costs for coaches are covered by the CBA.
