Coaches

There is also an urgent need to invest in supporting Palestinian coaches, increasing their numbers, classifying them, and training them to lead new teams. Our ambition is to have coaches who can work full time as basketball coaches and dedicate their time to improve their coaching capacity and enhance the basketball skills in the country.
