2010 April Newsletter.Pub FULL TIME Edition 1 April 2010 Dear North West AFCA Member, Welcome to season 2010 and the first edition of the revamped North West AFCA newsletter “Full Time”. As you may or may not be aware that previous NWAFCA executive Andrew Johnston has accepted a full time role with AFL Queensland/Gold Coast Football Club as their NEW Gold Coast Academy Manager and has since relocated to the Gold Coast. I have recently been appointed as Andrews’s replacement and am looking forward to working with you all closely after assisting Andrew in his role over the past 5 years. I trust that you have received and are enjoying a Rob Wileys “AFL: Coaching for the Future” DVD which was recently posted out to you. I would like to encourage all of you to take up as many of the initiatives presented to you by the NWAFCA committee throughout the year, particularly the FEATURING “NWAFCA Coaching Seminars” and “Coach of the Month/Year Awards”. What is AFCA? In closing, I am looking forward to another successful year in the North West/Calder Region and wish all of you and your fellow coaches all the best for 2010.
