im a coach,apply to F.A.W and ask about coaching courses,if you live in cardiff it is held in llanrumney.2 day course held on consecutive sundays,mate it can be fantastically rewarding and at times totally frustrating(parents normally).please feel free to ask anything,good luck,bye the way i take u11s.
