National Team Coaches

US Footy is seeking to fill the Head Coaching positions for the men and women's National teams. 

The Revolution is the men's national team of the United States Australian Football League (USAFL).  The men will aim to compete in the 2008 International Cup.  In 2008, the Revolution hopes to improve on its 3rd place finish at the 2005 International Cup.

The Women's National Team hopes to build a tradition of excellence in women's footy and compete internationally.

These are volunteer positions and will be appointed to run through the end of 2008.  The coaches will be required to pay the same proportion of costs as the players.  Any costs in excess of what is required by the player will be reimbursed by the USAFL.  Brief descriptions of both positions are included below. 

**All applicants for the both positions must send a cover letter including a resume to Julie Upton (officemanager@usfooty.com), in electronic format, by September 15, 2006.**
