U17 coach applications closed 17 January.

Ceri Evans, All Whites legend, ex - Oxford United, Christchuch United, Nelson United, probably won't have applied because of his day job as Clinical Director of the Canterbury Forensic Psychiatry Service but he's been coaching at the Mainland Academy and has been helping out nationally. Here's a BBC profile of him from 2010:

'Given his background, he is also getting "more and more requests" to help out on the high-performance side of youth coaching at a national level, particularly with the mental aspect.'

[Ceri is one of the world's most highly-qualified psychiatrists trained at Oxford University] 


Top bloke - met him a couple of years ago at a function and reminisced about football in the 1980's and 1990's. My mum, a Welsh Londoner knew his dad, the Welsh former Crystal Palace defender and NZFA secretary Gwyn in Nelson in the late '70's - early 80's.
