Some of you may have seen my earlier email, and I am writing again now to give you more details about the range of opportunities available for coaches, managers and administrators to get involved with some of the best players in Eastern Counties next season. You can play your part in helping develop tomorrow’s rugby stars whilst developing your own skills as a coach or administrator in a professional, high performance environment.
The roles are in three areas; Coaching, Team Management and Executive Administration, and an indication of the level of time commitment to each role is shown in ourdetailed advertisement which is available from this link - Coaching Poster.
We hope you'll want to take this opportunity; if you have questions there are detailed job descriptions on our website, and phone numbers to call we'd be pleased to hear from you.
Once you've decided the role/s that is right for you download an application form and post it to me at the address shown.
If you've already submitted an application in the past couple of weeks thank you and there's no need to respond again, we'll be in touch.
