Football West supported coaching programs:
Coaches play a key role in introducing and developing players to the world game. Football West aims to ensure that every coach in WA has access to coach education opportunities and that coaches at all levels are appropriately accredited for the task.
There are two coach education pathways for aspiring coaches to choose from – the Community Pathway or the Advanced Pathway
| Community | Advanced |
| Shorter duration | From 2 to 4 weeks in length |
| Less expensive | Intensive, residential courses |
| Conducted locally by States and territories | Conducted by FFA at the Australian Institute of Sport |
