Timetable: September December March June The first forum will see Birmingham University Lions Head Coach Tony Athersmith talk on Quarterback Reads / Fundamentals and Loughborough Aces Head Coach / Tamworth Phoenix DC Jason Scott discuss Game Film and Game Planning for Defence. This will enable some time at the end of the night to gain coaches thoughts on any specific topics they would like to hear about at the future forums. This will enable us to hopefully source specific guest speakers. This will also act as a networking opportunity for all coaches. We are already planning to utilise the BAFCA DVD Coaches Library at one of the forums as well as linking up through Skype with coaches i the US.
