Having enjoyed a very successful season in 2018, Hobart Basketball is now commencing preparations to go even further in the 2019 Basketball Tasmania southern competitions. We have been really encouraged this year to see a number of new coaches come on board, and we would love to extend the opportunity to any potential coaches for next year’s season. If you’re at all nervous about the idea of coaching, we have also received commitment from Basketball Tasmania’s Nic Martin to work with our coaches over the summer period and ensure that everyone is prepared for the season ahead.
In 2019, our team will be focused on expanding development on the fundamentals of the game in our junior ranks, along with building team structures in both defence and offence. With this in mind, applications for 2019 coaching positions will be assessed against the criteria below.
Applications are open now, and will close on 14 September 2018.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
