We are pleased to inform you that our previous Regional Coach Development Manager, Pete Sturgess has been appointed National Manager for the 5-11 age range. For those of you who attended previous demonstrations delivered by Pete this will come as no shock. Pete made a huge impact both locally and regionally with his philosophy and approach to junior development and without doubt he will be an influential figure in the future of the game at this level.
We now are fortunate to have two RCDMs in Yorkshire. John Griffiths has the remit for the 5-11 age range and Julie Chipchase has the responsibility to develop the game at the 12yrs - adult age range. Julie is an A-License coach and previous manger of Leeds United Ladies. Both Julie and John will play a huge role in delivering coaching demonstrations for the Coaches Association in the future.
