Good job Phoenix.

Paid Coaching Positions

October 1, 2010

If you are interested in earning some good money or perhaps just reducing your 2011 club fees (you could even play for free) then read on.

Austral have joined forces with the Australian Sports Commission and their Active After-School Communities program to run volleyball coaching sessions in Primary Schools throughout the school term.  As the name suggests the sessions are run after school hours at primary schools that have registered an interest in having volleyball taught to their students.  It will involve running fun, game-type activities for students once per week for 7-8 weeks during the school term, so that is 7-8 sessions of approximately 1.5hrs duration.

Naturally, the aim from our perspective is to represent Austral and the sport of volleyball in an exemplary fashion and hopefully attract more participants to the sport and members to the Club.  So you will be required to promote Austral…and why wouldn’t you?

There will be several positions available and we hope that this will be a program that we can run throughout next year across several schools surrounding Cosgrove Hall – but we are looking to start small with just 1 or 2 schools in Term 4 of 2010.

The rate of pay will be dependent on your coaching qualifications, and anyone interested in being part of this program will receive assistance in improving their skills and qualification in addition to payment for the sessions that they run.

If you are interested or would like to find out more then please contact Adam Harris via australvc@gmail.com by Thursday the 7th of October.

This is a great way to contribute to the growth and development of Austral and volleyball as a whole while making some coin.  So get on it!


Active After School Communities Program

September 24, 2010

Sunday October 10th at Seacliff Yacht Club is an opportunity for us to commence a membership drive for juniors etc via the Active After-School Communities (AASC)program.  There is a Come ‘n’ Try day for various sports available including Aquatic activities and Beach Hockey.  I thought it might be a good opportunity for us to capitalise on the coming beach season and try to attract some juniors from primary through high school age to the club via a beach volleyball set-up.  The event runs from 10am until 1pm, so it is not all day, and as long as we can get a few of us there by 9:30 to set up and then perhaps rotate through for the remainder of the event we should be right.

If you are interesting in being involved, please contact Adam Harris ASAP via the club email at australvc@gmail.com
