🔥 RESET THE PYRAMID. SHAPE THE FUTURE. 🔥

First Team Coach | Kenningwell United WFC

📍 Location: Dulwich / Peckham, South London
⏰ Commitment: Highly efficient – just 6 hours per week
🏆 Level: Tier 7 (Ambitious, elite-minded grassroots)
🙌 Type: Volunteer with elite professional backing
✈️ Perk: End-of-season overseas tour included!

This is not just another coaching slot. This is a football revolution.

Let’s be honest. Most volunteer coaching roles ask for everything and give absolutely nothing back. They drain your energy and stall your career. We are here to completely smash that cycle.

Kenningwell United WFC isn’t just another grassroots club. We are a powerhouse of raw ambition in South London, explicitly bridging the gap between community football and the elite pro game. We refuse to accept that Tier 7 players and coaches should settle for substandard resources. We believe hungry, talented coaches deserve an explosive platform to launch their careers.

If you live, breathe, and bleed football, if you want to empower women to absolutely dominate on the pitch, and if you want to build a reputation that makes the professional leagues take notice—your dugout is waiting.

The KUWFC Launchpad – What we pour into YOU:

• Elite Player Pipeline: Take control of a squad armed with an official loan agreement with Tier 4 giants Dulwich Hamlet. You will have the unique opportunity to develop, integrate, and coach top-tier elite youth talent right here in South London.
• Real Madrid Level Technology: We don't just kick a ball around. The data systems we use for biometric athlete monitoring—Kubios and Elite HRV systems—are the exact same physiological tracking tools used by global giants like Real Madrid. You will gain hands-on experience with high-end sports science data that 99% of grassroots coaches never touch.
• Elite Mentorship: You will work side-by-side with ex-Chelsea professionals. You cannot buy this kind of tactical oversight, elite feedback, and professional networking.
• Pro-Club Networks: Alongside our Dulwich Hamlet pipeline, we hold powerful, direct connections with Crystal Palace and London City Lionesses. Your tactical work here will be visible to the right people.
• The Overseas Tour: Hard work deserves an elite reward. At the end of the season, you’ll be heading abroad with the squad for our overseas team tour to celebrate, compete, and bond.
• Your Next Big Step: We don't want you to stay in Tier 7 forever. We want to help you sharpen your tools, build an undeniable CV, and push you directly toward your UEFA B and the pro game.

Your Professional Backroom Team 📋

At most grassroots clubs, the coach has to do everything from pumping balls to managing injuries. Not here. You will lead a fully functional, professional-grade multidisciplinary backroom team dedicated entirely to supporting your tactical vision:

• Video Analyst: Records and analyses matches, offering feedback to you and your players to sharpen tactics and performance.
• Strength & Conditioning Coach: Designs fitness programs to enhance player strength, stamina, and reduce injury risks.
• Sports Therapist: Manages injury recovery, provides treatments, and ensures peak physical health all season.
• Sports Psychologist: Supports mental well-being, building resilience and focus to optimize performance on and off the pitch.
• Journalist, Photographer & Social Media Team: Captures key moments, writes match reports, and runs high-impact marketing campaigns to boost club visibility and build your personal profile as a manager.

Your Mission on the Pitch:

• Ignite the First Team: Deliver electric, high-tempo training sessions that make players sprint to training after work.
• Own Matchday: Bring your tactical absolute best to the touchline. Inspire, adjust, integrate loan players seamlessly, and drive the squad to win.
• Weaponise Data: Collaborate with your S&C coach and backroom staff to integrate HRV data, pro-level biometrics, and video analysis into your tactical blueprint.
• Protect the Culture: Build a fierce, loyal, inclusive family where every player feels valued, respected, and ready to fight for the badge.

Who You Are:

• You hold a UEFA C Diploma (minimum) or higher.
• You don't just manage players; you inspire them. You speak with clarity, passion, and empathy.
• You are fascinated by modern football—tactics, player pathways, sports science, and player psychology.
• You care deeply about equality and creating space for women to thrive in sport.
• Female coaches: we want your visibility, your energy, and your leadership at the absolute forefront of this club.

Stop waiting for your break. Create it.

Don't just coach a team. Change the game for women in South London and skyrocket your own coaching profile while doing it.

Are you keen to use your creative energy or organisational skills to bring people together to fight for home?

Information about the role

This role gives you the chance to work as part of a team to come up with ideas, plan, organise and deliver fundraising events. As well as raising funds, you’ll also be sharing awareness of the local housing emergency within your local area. 

Location: Bristol

Suggested contribution: It’s flexible, but at least once a month, with potential for more volunteering in the lead up to an event. 

Availability: This is a flexible opportunity, with meetings and events likely to take place in evenings and weekends.

The above is the essential information you need to know. You can apply now by clicking ‘fill in an application’ or read on more for details. 

Main activities may include:

• Support with planned Shelter activity including fundraising in your community 

• Generating fundraising ideas with the group

• Organising and hosting your own fundraising events

• Inspiring your network of contacts to support the fight for home

• Attending local events, such as Rotary meetings or community fairs, to raise awareness of Shelter and collecting donations

• Speaking about what we do and promoting national campaigns in your community

This role fights the housing emergency by raising funds that enable Shelter to provide advice and support and campaigning for change. The events you’ll be attending are also great for raising awareness of the housing emergency and how people can get involved to help tackle it. 

Benefits of volunteering with Shelter

Volunteers are essential to Shelter’s mission to end housing injustice. We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds. The insights and life experiences our volunteers bring to Shelter are valued as much as their contribution through volunteering.

We aim to provide our volunteers with a positive experience. This is by prioritising accessibility and tailoring the support we provide to the needs of the individual. We make sure our policies and processes are equitable, which means that no-one is unfairly disadvantaged while volunteering because of their background or identity.

Your skills and experience 

Creativity and organisational skills may be useful, and you’ll need to be willing to collaborate as part of a team. But the most important thing is that you are passionate about joining our fight for home!

Supporting you

• You will be provided with an induction into your role, access to relevant learning and a copy of our volunteer handbook.

• The role, including learning and communications, are flexible, so can be tailored so they best suit your needs and preferences. 

• You will be able to claim reasonable volunteering expenses in line with Shelter’s volunteer policy. Where financial circumstances would be a barrier to volunteering, we may be able to offer these funds in advance. 

• You will be able to access our volunteer support package, including our colleague assistance programme and Shelter’s network of mental health first aiders.
