Re-advertisement: Are You our New Head Coach?

By the end of 2016 Michael Klæsøe, our splendid Head Coach for the past four seasons, stepped down. Therefore, Erritsoe GIF Rugby is seeking his replacement. For immediate appointment or appointment by agreement.

Your primary obligations will, among other things, cover an ongoing development of our squad’s rugby skills, allowing us to meet the objectives defined in our rugby club’s vision, mission and goals. Your average expected time consumption is 5 to 10 hours a week.

Our present first team squad consists of a mixture of younger and older players, most of whom have ten years of rugby experience or more. A handful of players have less than five years’ rugby experience. Most of our players have practised and played rugby for other clubs before joining us. A handful of our players have played in other countries, such as Fiji, New Zealand and The Ukraine.

Last autumn our first team competed in Division One and finished second in that league, making us the eighth best Danish rugby team in 2016. This is the starting point from which you, as our new Head Coach, will take over our first team squad.

As our new Head Coach you are expected to make and execute a long-term plan for development of our male players and first team squad, so that we will once again belong to the top of Danish rugby. In these efforts our men’s team manager and our juniors’ team manager, as well as the club committee, will be your close sparring partners.

Please forward your application to our Secretary, Helle Ullerup, at post@erritsoerugby.dk, including all relevant enclosures and attachments, no later than 7th February 2017.

In case you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Best regards, Erritsø GIF Rugby
