GFF TO HOST TECHNICAL STAFF TRAINING

5th December, 2016; Georgetown: The Guyana Football Federation Inc. (GFF) will host a staff training course for technical officers beginning on the Tuesday, 6th December, 2016 at the National Resource Centre, Woolford Avenue Georgetown.

The three-day training will cater for approximately twenty-six (26) participants from across the nine Member Associations of the GFF and will be held daily from 09:00hrs – 17:00hrs.

According to Technical Director, Ian Greenwood, the purpose of the staff training event is two-fold. “First, it will serve to up-skill selected coaches who have recently completed either the CONCACAF D. and/or GFF D. License Course. This will be based on the new GFF Technical Department’s national playing and coach philosophy as we strive to overhaul, improve and professionalize football on a national level. Secondly, we are assessing the coaches on the course to recruit a brand new workforce of Technical Development Officers (TDOs) and GFF Youth Coaches in all nine Member Associations.”

The programme will be both theoretical and practical in nature and will be facilitated by Mr. Greenwood and Mr. Lyndon France, GFF’s Technical Development Officer (TDO).
