Registering as a Coach to a Club in 2019:
“ALL coaches will register to their community club/s via CoachAFL and this will replace the previous duplicated process of registering through SportsTG. This is now in place and it is vital that ALL coaches register via CoachAFL annually to ensure they are accredited and able to be picked to a Team Sheet in 2019.
All coaching data, (once the coach is accredited) is sent from CoachAFL to SportsTG once daily at approximately 8pm AEST, updating their records in SportsTG. This includes everything – contact details, club registrations, accreditations etc and can be accessed through their Footyweb database as normal.
The attached documents are resources that can be communicated to coaches, leagues and clubs to inform them of the relevant accreditation/reaccreditation process for 2019.
If you have any questions surrounding any of this, please let the Coaching Support Team know through our Contact Us page.
