Great coaches get overlooked. The right contact changes that.
You applied online. You heard nothing. The role went to someone who emailed the Academy Manager directly — because they had the address.

“Talent isn't enough without the right contacts”
Job portals are a black hole
You submit your CV through a club website. It goes into a system nobody checks. The role was filled through a contact three weeks ago.
You don't know who to contact
Academy Manager, Head of Coaching, Technical Director — the person who hires coaches isn't listed anywhere public.
Networking events aren't enough
You met two people at a coaching conference. You need contacts at 40 clubs across three countries. Events don't scale.

I'm a coach, not a salesperson — this feels transactional
Every coaching job you've ever got came through a conversation with the right person. Footy Contacts just gives you the name and email so you can start that conversation — the same way you'd ask a colleague for an introduction, except the directory is already built.
Your next role won't come from a job portal.
