Staines Women's 1s: Coach/Player Coach Required

Staines Women's 1s: Coach/Player Coach Required

Staines Hockey Club L1s Staines, TW18 1HR

Following our recent promotion into South Central Division 1, Staines Women's 1s are looking for a new coach to lead us into the 2026/27 season and drive our next chapter of success. We are an ambitious, hard working squad with our sights firmly set on another promotion push, and we're looking for someone who can match that energy and raise the standards once again. The club has easy transport links from London (30 minute train from Clapham Junction) and competitive pay.

What We're Looking For

We want a coach who brings energy, ambition and a clear vision for how we continue to grow at this level. Someone who can set high standards, challenge us, and create an environment where we keep pushing individually and collectively. We are also open to having a player coach if that is more suited to you.

Previous coaching experience at this level, or higher, is strongly desired. We're looking for someone with depth in tactical knowledge, confidence in decision making, and the ability to adapt strategies to get the best out of the squad. We value clear, constructive feedback, both individually and as a team.

Training & Match Commitment

We require availability for:

• Thursday evening training 19:00-21:30 (supporting Women's 1s and 2s)
• Every Saturday Home & Away Matches from late August through to the end of the season

Consistency matters to us. We want a coach who is present, engaged, and invested in our development. We are also actively recruiting new players and open to expanding our squad, so if you know of any players interested please encourage them to reach out too.

If you're someone who thrives on developing players, building team identity and driving performance, we'd love to hear from you.

If you think you're the right fit to take us forward, please get in touch with Niamh Sheehan at:
