Interested in Coaching?
We are a volunteer-led club and without our parent coaches and other parent volunteers who run other functions across the clubs, we would be who we are today. Thank you all for your time and commitment
At Inter Kenmare FC our Coaches/Managers are key to the establishment of good ethics in football and their concept of ethics and their attitudes directly affects the behaviour and attitude of players under their supervision.
In keeping children and young people at the forefront of planning and practice, our coaches can be confident that participants will enjoy their football experiences and that their actions are regarded as safe and in keeping with the principle that the safety and welfare of children is of paramount consideration.
Our Coaches are given a position of trust by parents/guardians and players, and are expected to operate to the highest standards of behaviour whilst in the company of underage players (under 18 years). Our coaches are also expected not to engage in any activity that could reasonably be viewed as bringing the club or soccer in general into disrepute.
It is a legal requirement that anybody working in a voluntary capacity with children must first be Garda Vetted through the FAI. Garda Vetting application forms are available from the Club Child Protection Officer, Volunteers must also complete the FAI Safeguarding Course.
Managers and Coaches are encouraged to develop their coaching skills by attending Coach Education Programmes such as PDP 1 + 2. The Club will pay or reimburse the cost of attendance.
