Stjernen Hockey Fredrikstad has for several decades been one of the strongest ice hockey clubs in Norway. Still, we believe that the best days are ahead of us – not behind us. In 2023 or 2024, we will move into the new Arena Fredrikstad. Our ambition is to become the best youth department in Norway.
Stjernen Ung is now hiring a full time development manager / head coach for our oldest players in our U18 and U21 teams.

You will work with both technical and tactical skills – and be coach in matches, home and away, but not all.
The development manager must ensure that the players receive good, individual feedback and follow-up along the way, so that each player can develop based on their potential, strengths and weaknesses.
The development manager will work closely with the hockey high school Wang Toppidrett, and also lead training there, together with the sports director.

Together with Stjernen Elite, you will safeguard a smart flow between the junior teams and the A-team.
An absolute requirement is to have a burning commitment to young people. In Stjernen, we first and foremost want to develop our young people into good people with the right attitudes and work habits. We believe that this makes good ice hockey players.
