Coaching Accreditation Program

At the recent State Summit a Working Group was formed to develop the Gridiron Australia National Coaching Framework to provide consistency in recognition and to provide a pathway for existing and new coaches to develop within the sport here in Australia. Please find here the competitive and recreational coaching frameworks.

To obtain recognition with Gridiron Australia as a coach under the new coaching recognition framework you will need to complete the following:

• For existing coaches, fill out an Recognised Prior Learning Application and submit to admin@ga.org.au. These applications will then be considered against the criteria and approved where appropriate.
• All coaches will need to complete the ASC community coaching principles and USA Youth Tackle Football certification.
