Athletes and Coaches involved in the Kambrya Athlete Development Program
In 1995 and 1996 he was assistant coach for the Geelong Football club which included a grand final appearance in the former season. In 1997 he became coach of the reserves team at Richmond and took that side from the wooden spoon (the year before) to Premiership winners. After a string of disappointing results by the Richmond senior team under the previous coach, Gieschen was appointed senior coach from late in the 1997 season.
Jeff went on to work as the National Umpire Manager for the AFL for 14 years which makes him the longest serving Umpire Manager in the history of the game.
