Baseball Queensland is pleased to announce the release of their Coach Selection Criteria. Developed by Junior Elite Pathway Manager, Shayne Watson and in conjunction with Baseball Australia, the criteria will be followed throughout the coach selection process for all our QLD Bandits Programs.

Watson explains “The implementation of this process promotes transparency along with creating a coach’s pathway throughout our Elite Level Programs. Continuing from our 2018 Program, the Field Manager is appointed for a two year term with Assistant/Pitching Coach and Executive Officer’s for a one year term”.

“This approach provides consistency for a period of time with our Field Manager position, along with providing additional opportunities for new coaches to enter within the pathway” Watson says.

Watson continues “We provide a great deal of support for athletes towards their development. This process is part of the initial stage in providing support for our coaches and providing opportunities for their development”

Coaching applications for all QLD Bandits State Team’s are open.

A coach in any QLD Elite Program, at any capacity, is a very important role model for the young athletes either selected on a team and/ or program. They are responsible for setting the culture of the program in line with QLD Bandits ideals. Coaches will be ultimately responsible for contributing to the successful delivery of the QLD Bandits program. This includes developing and the implementation of a comprehensive program in preparation for National Championships.
