NATIONAL COACHING DIRECTION

Hockey NZ is excited to launch the National Coaching Direction, developed to create greater alignment across coaching in Aotearoa. The National Coaching Direction outlines the aspirations of the coaching system, identifies what is required of the coach network, defines the core actions of impactful coaching, and clarifies how the impact of coaching should be measured. This direction supports coaches to understand how their actions help build a stronger, more connected coaching network. It also informs Hockey NZ and the wider hockey network’s priorities within coaching. Below is a one‑page overview of the National Coaching Direction.

The document linked below contains further important information about the direction, and the roles and responsibilities across the coaching system.
