APFA are short of coaches and I know some parents aren't happy with the setup at the moment considering the fees they are paying.

I heard that one of the groups ( I think they split them older/younger) was being coached by a young English lass who plays for Halswell first team. Nice enough but not a lot of coaching experience. Ivanov at least has plenty of offshore coaching experience and has been around the local scene long enough to understand the situation here. Well qualified to do the job I'd imagine. Essentially he would be replacing Jess Ibrom who went to USA! USA! USA!
