Coaching is a great way of being involved in basketball, whether you have stopped playing, coaching your son or daughter in a local Aussie Hoops program, getting involved with a team at your club or association, or taking the next step in your coaching career.
Coaches at Ashy Lightning Basketball club are volunteers who:
- Are inclusive and provide all players, existing and new, with equal opportunities to participate
- We have a great subbing spreadsheet to help you work out even court times.
- Provide meaningful and accurate feedback to the Club on individual players, team performance and grading levels as requested by the Club
