The Football Association is looking to appoint Coach Mentors to support local County Football Associations.  
This post will be geographically based around the Middlesbrough, Stokesley and Guisborough areas of the county. 
They will work with specific projects, supporting:

• Grassroots Clubs
• Pre and Post Qualification Support

You would be working on a part-time basis, on a minimum 100 hour contract for the season and will each provide agreed hours of mentoring support, across a 12 month period. Mentors will provide quality targeted support that challenges coaches to excel in their work and enhance coaching standards nationally. 

The aim of the Mentoring programme is:

• To support the development of coaches in grassroots football  leaving a lasting legacy

The mentoring programme will meet the needs of coaches at a local level, promoting and cascading the principles of the England DNA, as well as linking with The FA Respect programme.

We now seek applications from perspective mentors with the right credentials, knowledge, skills attributes and time to provide mentoring opportunities for coaches.
