What to Expect at the BAFCA Convention

Laird, Peter; Davies, Matthew

Abstract

BAFCA and its precursor the NFCA has been in existence since 1992. Established originally with the remit of providing knowledge sharing opportunities between coaches, one of its initial benefits was the delivery of its annual coaching conference. It grew out of the original annual general meeting which met to elect new board members and eventually established itself to the 3-day event we know today, with a dedicated fixture free weekend granted by the governing body.

But what does the convention involve and what can first time coaches expect? Here’s a helpful guide from BAFCA Director Pete Laird and East Kilbride Pirates HC Matthew Davies.
