How to structure it
Opening
Name the role and, in one line, the strongest reason you're a fit. Skip the throat-clearing.
Middle
One or two paragraphs of real, specific evidence: what you did, and the result. This is where most letters go generic. Yours shouldn't.
Why this employer
One genuine, specific reason you want this job at this company, not any company. Vague enthusiasm reads as a template that wasn't customised.
Close
Thank them, note your resume is attached, and make it easy to reach you.
Re: Application for Netball Coach
I am writing to apply for the Netball Coach role at [Company Name]. With a background in coaching junior and senior teams, I bring a player-first approach to skill development, fitness and match-day preparation.
In my most recent coaching role, I planned and led weekly training sessions for a squad of 22 players, focusing on court movement, passing accuracy and defensive pressure. I used Hudl Sportscode to break down match footage and build opposition-specific game plans, which helped the team reduce turnovers in the defensive third across the season. I also mentored three developing players who went on to trial for representative teams.
I am drawn to [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I share a commitment to fostering player wellbeing and long-term development, and I would welcome the chance to contribute to your club's coaching program.
Thank you for considering my application. My resume is attached and I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how I can support your teams.
Getting it right
- Keep it to one page. A hiring manager spends seconds on this before deciding whether to read your resume.
- Address a named person where you can find one, rather than "To Whom It May Concern".
- Don't repeat your resume line for line. Use the letter to add context a bullet point can't: why this role, why now, why here.
- Match the tone of the job ad. A formal listing calls for a formal letter; a casual one gives you room to write more like yourself.
This is a starting point, not a guarantee of interviews. Make it specific to the actual employer before you send it.
