Last year, saw the Touch NZ TID Camp be recognised as an opportunity within the Touch NZ Coaching pathway. This camp is recognised as a bridging component for coaches between community and high performance. The success of last year’s camp (and other opportunities) helped elevate over 6 coaches into HP campaign position roles.

This year will see a new EOI opportunity for more coaches to put their hand up for these well sought-after spots. Selection for these limited spots will be selected through a panel (with input from Provincial Coaching Directors as required).

The TID Camp will consist of performance and high performance systems and education, hands on coaching delivery and application with players/teams, and coaching support/mentoring throughout the 4 days.
