The MFA Technical Centre will be holding another CYF (Coaching Young Footballers) course between Friday 14 and Sunday 16 September. This course, held on a regular basis, is intended to help prospective coaches impart their coaching knowledge in a proper way and in accordance with updated methods used for young footballers.

Interested persons are required to fill an application form issued by the Technical Centre together with a recommendation by the nursery and a fitness medical certificate. A passport-size photo is also required.

Unlike previous years a new application system has been introduced whereby calls for applications will remain open throughout the season and kept in a numbered waiting list for future reference.

Applications for the forthcoming course will start being processed on Thursday, 9 August at 9.00 am. Applicants, who must be 18 years of age on the date of application, should note that due to the limited intake of candidates applications will be accepted on a first-come-first-served basis.

These CYF certificates are valid for 3 years up to September 2015.

More details are available from the Technical Centre and these together with the forms can be obtained during office hours.
