[Katharine Kurtz]

Dear Underwater Hockey Community,

We are currently looking for coaches for the 2015 Juniors World Championships (boys and girls, U19 and U23) happening in Castellon, Spain from August 6 - 15, 2015 . Please see qualifications and required information below. We need to hear about your interest by Friday February 13. Please write to kat_s...@usauwh.com  

We will select coaches among the candidates that contact us, only for the teams that have enough pre-committed players, which is still being defined.  We will announce the names of the coaches by February 15, at which point the coaches will be at the helm of their team. Coaches will release the profile of player they are looking for, a training regime and other plans by February 20. Players will seal their commitment with a deposit by deadline February 25.

Thank you,

Juniors Steering Committee
