Is it the 2nd division or 5th division? Your post says both of them.

To clarify, AVW'66 is just an amateur club playing in a local league.

Hopefully this is part of getting your coaching license, much like hashemian coaching in the oberliga a few years ago.

It is the fifth division league in the overall Dutch football league structure. The article states it is a second division club, this is in reference to the amateur levels in which it is the second division.

Good for him! no shame in starting in lower divisions to gain experience and to come up with your own style of coaching by experimenting.

Good luck to him. There is no shame in this what so ever, in fact, this is the proper way of gaining experience and building your managerial personality. It's a process, but it can pay off big time in the long term.
