Papua New Guinea Rugby Football League Chairman Sandis Tsaka says there will be an advert put out this month to find a coach for the National Womens Rugby League team PNG Raggianas.

Taska made this known to the media on Friday after the appointment of the new PNGRFL CEO Reatau Rau.

He said with the Raggianas set to take part in the Women’s Rugby League world cup this year the need for a coach to head the development programs for the women’s team needed to be put out of the way.

“There will be a public call out for applications for the National Women’s Coach as we are all aware our national women’s team will be participating in the rugby league World Cup this year.

“And to go forward to start the screening process talent identification and player development pathway for our elite women in the country we will be calling out for applications.

“The recruitment of the National Women’s coach will be one of the first assignments of the New CEO, adverts will be going out for the position and hopefully we can appoint one before the end of February to take up the position of the National Women’s Coach,” Taska said

He added that the coach will be appointed on merit whether it be male or female according to his resume and qualifications.

“PNGRFL is an equal gender employer we don’t discriminate gender for the women’s coach there are men who coach both men and women in the sport of rugby league but depending on their skills set and their requirements we will select the best coach that’s why we are asking for applications their resume will tell us who they are and we will pick the right coach,” Taska said

He added that the coach would be made known once all final interviews and others are processes are made.

“The result will be made known after the 21st of February, so the coach can be ready to run the programs required all his other support staff will be appointed once the national team is named later in the year,” Taska said
