Meet some Female Coaches
Scottish Hockey is proud to host a high volume of female players compared to many other sports. Many of our women members go the extra mile to volunteer, umpire and organise competitions as well as hold positions in their club or Scottish Hockey committees. Despite this presence, there is a lack of qualified female coaches across Scotland at all levels of competition. Workforce Development Plans are now being put in place to recruit women and support them into coaching careers.
Scottish Hockey did a quick Q&A with six successful female coaches from all levels to gain an insight into why they love what they do and to motivate other women to pick up a coaching board. Their insightful thoughts and words of wisdom can be found below......
