Mentoring is an effective way for coaches and officials to learn and develop under the supervision of a senior coach or official. Mentors can assist with coaching or officiating skills improvement and be a sounding board for problems.

Mentoring relationships can be formally structured, with
mentors assigned to coaches or officials, or they can be very informal. A
mentor can be equally useful for a new coach or official just starting out, or
for an elite coach or official with many years of experience.
Course
dates can be found on the Calendar of Events.
Please complete the registration form and
forward it directly to the Department of Sport and Recreation to confirm
attendance at a course.
For further
details on the Mentoring course content please see the Australian
Sports Commission website.
