I know some players involved in a dev squad and they do get a packed lunch sometimes and they do get some gear. MeathGAAHead (Meath) - Posts: 87 - 20/08/2015 15:00:24 1773290 Link 0 |
I see Graham Geraghty, Donal Curtis and Cormac Sullivan are currently taking part in the Award 2 Coaching course. Who are the coaches or managers and any idea what level of qualifications the Development Squad coaches have? Loads of Club coaches have the Award 1 Coaching qualification but if we want our Development squad players to progress should at least the Development Squad Managers not also have this Award 2 course. Another sport but Roy Keane was a great footballer but just because he could play the game doesn't mean you he could coach the game and I remember he talked about going to get his coaching badges when he finished playing. Coaching is key to the future. AnFearBan1234 (Meath) - Posts: 110 - 21/08/2015 13:47:35 1773821 Link 0 |

From my small knowledge of the dev team Management at present working with the young players within Meath , I know that a lot of them have at least an award 1 with many more of them having an award 2, and loads of club & County experience behind them .But it matters not as up to this point to gain an award 1 or 2 you had to be actively coaching within your club before you were allowed to do the various awards , that's meant to say you were to be building on your experience from Juvenile up to minor before you could complete these awards . From what I see within the current forums , you only have to be an ex County player now..... and you can do these awards anytime . The idea was to build on Experience . That now seems to be getting a bit diluted just to facilitate the parachuting of ex county players at the TOP .. Chaisleain_Abu (Meath) - Posts: 220 - 21/08/2015 15:41:05 1773954 Link 0 |
Ziggy, you seem to have an insight into the U14s who seem to be playing well and getting good wins..... or maybe thats CB spin? AnFearBan1234 (Meath) - Posts: 110 - 24/08/2015 12:17:22 1775123 Link 0 |

ah now Ziggy - I know that the Gaelige mightn't be the best, but surely you know the difference between bán and beag! anfearbeag (Meath) - Posts: 1134 - 25/08/2015 11:56:52 1775802 Link 3 |
I know some of the coaches involved with U14 and U15 teams as I'm involved with a club and Id have to agree with ziggy32001 that there are some very good coaches involved with these teams and an ex intercounty manager with the U16s. If as Chaisleain_Abu says that many of these coaches already have an award 2 course done, and loads of club & County experience behind them it would maybe suggest that the Steering Committee have grasped the nettle and put the right people in place at last.

All-Ireland winners of the '90s, Barry Callaghan, will take charge of the county minor football team next year with Sean Barry continuing as under-21 team boss. MeathGAAHead (Meath) - Posts: 87 - 08/09/2015 15:46:40 1784701 Link 0 |

Well guys as stated before Ziggy, has an amazing inside track on what goes on at Co Board level . Not to be causing sparks but the minor, and U17 appointments appear quite strange for a number of reasons. I'm sure Ziggy can cast some light on them. Especially seeing as how a dictat from Central council regarding Managers ( Coaching awards) at County level are concerned . Then again its still 3+ months till 2016. Im sure that can be addressed easily by then . Chaisleain_Abu (Meath) - Posts: 220 - 09/09/2015 09:29:59 1784958 Link 0 |
Did I not read here somewhere that at least the Head Coach or Manager for each Meath Development panel has an Award 1 or Award 2 coaching qualification. Is this not a pre-requisite to an appointment? MeathGAAHead (Meath) - Posts: 87 - 09/09/2015 10:25:34 1784997 Link 0 |
Strangely enough the LGFA look for an Award 1 as a minimum for County Managers , But I think your right MeathGAAhead, surely we in Meath would ensure we are compliant in that respect . Chaisleain_Abu (Meath) - Posts: 220 - 09/09/2015 11:04:22 1785012 Link 0 |
Sounds like you know something about the qualifications of the various coaches Caislean and aren't saying all you know. MeathGAAHead (Meath) - Posts: 87 - 09/09/2015 11:45:52 1785047 Link 0 |
Now,Now MeathGAAhead , Don't be trying to light a fire here. in truth the only people that know anything about the qualifications of the coaches appointed to the teams are the selection committees and or maybe Meath Coaching and Games , and I can assure you I'm not one of them .
