Your story matters. Your insights will help us understand the real experiences, challenges, opportunities and support needs of working mothers, and show organisations, leaders and the wider sport industry how to build more inclusive, supportive and equitable workplaces.
✅ Open to women who are currently working, or have previously worked, in sport while raising children
⏱️ Takes around 10–15 minutes
📅 Closes Sunday 15 November

COACHING COURSES COMING UP IN AUCKLAND
Coaches, we have several coach education opportunities coming up at Mt Smart Stadium No. 2, providing a great chance to build your coaching knowledge, develop your skills, and connect with other coaches from across the region. Whether you're new to coaching or looking to expand your event-specific expertise, these CAD Level 1 courses offer practical learning from experienced ACE coaches.
SUNDAY 1 NOVEMBER 2026
CAD Level 1 – Sprints and Hurdles
📍 Mt Smart Stadium No. 2
9:00am - 10:30am Sprints
10:30am - 12:00pm Hurdles
Delivered by ACE coach Brent Booker.
A NOTE ABOUT COACH MEMBERSHIP
To attend a CAD Level 1 course, coaches are required to hold an Athletics New Zealand Coach Membership.
Not a member yet? Don't let that stop you. You can still attend by emailing kelly@athletics.org.nz with the course you'd like to attend, and Kelly will register you manually.
To complete your coach membership, you'll also need to complete a short 20-minute online safeguarding module and submit a police vetting form. If these requirements are still outstanding, that's okay. Kelly will follow up with you after the course to help get everything completed.
Each course costs $15 per event and is available to fully compliant Community Coaches.
Please register using the QR code on the relevant course flyer.
These courses are a fantastic opportunity to gain the fundamental knowledge required to coach your chosen event while connecting with other coaches across Auckland.
Whether you're already coaching, considering becoming a coach, or simply wanting to learn more about a particular event, we'd love to see you there.
Let's continue building a strong coaching community and supporting the development of athletics across Auckland.
Interested but not sure which course is right for you? Feel free to contact kelly@athletics.org.nz for a chat. ... See MoreSee Less
