Lancaster University Boat Club – Senior Women’s squad part time coach

We are looking for a volunteer part-time coach for our Senior Women’s squad. The squad is currently made up of around 30 women all with varied levels of experience in the sport. Our main races of the academic year are Roses (a varsity race against York University) and BUCS, and this year we are aiming to send a crew to Henley Women’s for the first time.

The main role of the coach would be to coach water sessions and assist the Senior Women’s Captain in making training plans for on and off the water, and crew selections.

In previous years the women’s squad have not had a consistent coach but have still managed to perform well and win races, and so this year we are looking to further improve the technique and performance of our women by having a coach who can guide the women to being even better rowers.

An ideal candidate would have a level 2 coaching qualification or higher. It is vital any coach has the athletes health and well-being as a priority, and is able to communicate effectively with the Senior Women’s Captain and the squad as a whole.

The role is currently only a volunteer one, travel costs will be covered. Applications can be made to the following email address: [email protected]

 

Application Dates: From Tuesday 6th September 2022 to Saturday 1st October 2022
