Are you looking for a meaningful way to give back to your community while having a blast? Consider becoming a volunteer coach for our youth sports programs! By coaching, you'll not only help shape the athletic skills and teamwork abilities of the next generation but also foster their confidence and love for sports. Imagine the joy of seeing a child’s face light up after scoring a goal or mastering a new skill, all thanks to your guidance. Plus, coaching offers a unique opportunity to bond with your community, develop your leadership skills, and stay active yourself. It’s a rewarding experience where your time and enthusiasm make a tangible difference.
If you are interested in serving as a volunteer coach, contact your local Youth Programs and complete the registration process to be a coach. All potential volunteers must obtain background clearance, complete 10 hours of training, and attend two practice/games per week during an
season.
