Walking Football Coaches Needed in Lincoln

Lincolnshire FA are looking for one or two volunteers to coach walking football on Monday’s 4-5pm at Sincil Bank (on the 3G pitches). Coaches do not need to have a football coaching qualification but it is advantageous if you do have one. Depending on hours committed to the position, Lincolnshire FA may be able to support people in attaining future football coaching qualifications. Please contact Sophie Bartup (Sophie.bartup@lincolnshirefa.com) if you are interested.

 

Interested in Performance Analysis? Local opportunities available

We have a number of excellent opportunities for students who would like to gain performance analysis experience with local sports teams. These include hockey, rugby and football but you do not necessarily need to be a player of that particular sport to become involved.

These types of opportunity have served as the springboard in recent years for students to progress to careers with professional clubs or postgraduate studies in related areas. Relevant experience is essential in this very competitive field!

If you would like to know more  – or to register an interest – please contact Sandy Willmott at swillmott@lincoln.ac.uk . The positions would be suitable either for individuals or for small groups of students who might want to share a role.
