Tom Sermanni
(Former Matildas and USWNT Head Coach)
During my first stint as coach of the Matildas in 1994 - 1997, I approached Paul to become involved with our national team program.
After coaching spells in Japan and the United States I returned to Australia to once again take over the national senior team.
Paul was a natural choice to be my goalkeeper coach.
​
Paul’s understanding of the art of goalkeeping (technical and tactical) is among the best in the country. This knowledge led Paul to become the goalkeeping coach for all our women’s teams; Under 17s through to the national senior team, the Matildas.
Paul, congratulations on the Paul Jones Goalkeeping Academy.

Jonesy,
​
Your contribution to my development can not be overstated. Working with you for the past 5 years I have developed from a promising young goalkeeper to a senior international and professional footballer.
You are the best,
Bri Davey

Jonesy,
Thank you for allowing me to dream.
I am only at the start of my international career. I know that without your help I would never have got this far.
I want to follow in the steps of other Canberran’s that under your tuition have gone on to play football at the highest level. Many thanks,
Georgina
