The club would like to establish a new, updated development plan incorporating new goals and a well-defined development pathway for ALL players.

The immediate development goals of the club are to enter at least 1 mixed team at Phoenix (pref 2), and then enter this team at Mixed Nats. Following this, we want to enter an open team and a womens team at Regionals in 2013 with the aim of attending Nationals. (Or Div-2 Nationals if we don’t qualify for Nats).

Here is a development plan proposal, it will provide the foundation for a new, updated development plan which will work towards the above goals. The exec committee has reviewed the document and provided some early feedback, some of which has already been incorporated. Now it is time for YOU to have some input into how you would like this plan to take shape.

YOUR FEEDBACK / INPUT INTO THIS DEVELOPMENT PLAN IS WELCOMED. Please read the document, post any comment either directly to me (or anyone on the exec) or just reply back to this list for everyone to see.

PLEASE DO THIS ASAP, ALL INPUT MUST BE RECEIVED PRIOR TO SUNDAY 8TH APRIL.

There are a few things currently not in the document, which must be included in the final plan. These items are:

  • League – right now there is no mention of how league teams are selected. Up for discussion. We may enter the ‘A’ team as a league team, with a few A-team players playing with the B or C teams for league (the full A tournament squad is a bit too big for league). Might split A team in half, and supplement with B/C players to spread experience and help develop newer players. Discuss!
  • Selection – how are the teams selected, who selects the selectors, etc. External selectors could be included too.
  • Coaching – we need more coaches to assist with split training sessions, as well as a plan to develop our coaches.

Please feel free to discuss this with me in person at Monday pickup, Wednesday league or after training on Sunday
