Being our Best Teams Head Coaching Positions

The Newfoundland and Labrador Basketball Association (NLBA) is now accepting applications for head coaching positions for the 2015-16 Being our Best program and the 2016 Provincial Summer Basketball Programs:

• Grade 7 and 8 Development Boys Program
• Grade 7 and 8 Development Girls Program

This will be for a two-year term based on a favourable review by the NLBA at the end of the first year. If coaches receive a favourable review, they will coach the High Performance Program/Midget Provincial Team Program in the second year. The developmental program runs from October to March, and consists of practice with 40 athletes, twice a week.

Tryouts will take place late September at the Newfoundland and Labrador Sport Centre.
