An exciting, unique opportunity to lead a world-class, medal winning international lacrosse programme, continuing the success from the summer of 2022.
England Lacrosse is looking for an experienced, committed, and enthusiastic Head Coach to lead the England Senior Women’s programme through to the next Women’s World Championship.
England Senior Women are ranked 3rd in the world, having won bronze at the last two World Championships, consistently challenging the world leaders, as well as being current reigning European Champions.
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to shape the Senior Women’s programme for the next World Championship cycle, including leading the programme at European Championships, Home International Series, and other international fixtures and tours as appropriate within the programme schedule.
The Head Coach will work closely with the England Lacrosse National Performance Manager in overseeing the strategy, standards, and ongoing direction of the programme and ensuring the overall culture of the programme is aligned with England Lacrosse’s vision and values.
You will be responsible for the coaching, development and implementation of plans for the training squad and individual players to be prepared to compete on the international stage and perform consistently at the highest standards required to achieve sustained success.
You should be comfortable working with elite athletes and adept at managing and working collaboratively with a team of staff to achieve maximum output from available resources.
The successful coach will also be required to work closely with the Women’s U23 and U20 Head Coaches in solidifying the synergy and clear progression pathway between the squads.
As with all coaching roles England Lacrosse will be holding a full, open application and interview process for the new cycle with all prospective candidates welcome to apply.
