Geoff Barr

At Dunsborough Football Club, I guided the enhancement of player skills and team performance through training exercises and motivational leadership. My approach, emphasizing tactical knowledge and physical fitness, significantly fostered sportsmanship and discipline. This blend of hard and soft skills has proven pivotal in preparing athletes for competitive success. Hardworking Football Coach highly effective at building and managing successful programs. Skilled in selecting coaching staff, evaluating players and managing rigorous practice schedules to prepare for challenging games. Over 20 years of experience in coaching organizations at multiple levels

My planning for the upcoming Colts season would include a much more detailed approach to planning, training , coaching and game day execution.

Skills, Skills and more skills are going to be high on the agenda and combining this with a higher level of fitness drills, it should set up the group to succeed going forward.

My view would be to have an actual Colts squad that has the full understanding that they will be coached to play at the colts level. This squad will understand that they are chosen to be in a squad of boys that want to buy into a program that will benefit themselves as well as the club for years to come.

This would hopefully sit under an actual league squad that includes a number of the Colts boys that also have the desire to play football at the top level for the SWFL. These colts boys would also be of the understanding that both themselves and the club would buy into them playing League Football. This will ensure that all players understand the dynamic of what we are trying to achieve.

Setting up a group of individuals that will be available to help execute this plan will be crucial to the development of these young men.

I will be assisted by two guys that have bought into what we need to achieve.

Frank Giglia was the assistant coach in 2024 and brings passion and the will to succeed. He also has a high expectation of what needs to be done from a talented football background.

Geoff Davies from Dunsborough Cellars is the 2nd assistant . Geoff brings a dynamic passion for Football and everything Dunsborough. Geoff is a success sportsman in a number of sports and has a great eye for detail. His willingness to be involved is a credit to himself and what he has achieved for the town and the club. I am also working on one other person that currently has not fully committed to the full season.

I also have a couple of EX players that have agreed to come down and help out over the course of the year. These will be sessions that are based around their expertise and will break up the common voice of the full time coaches.
