We Can Teach Soccer. We Can't Teach Heart.
Some people have a gift.

Children naturally respond to them. They bring energy, encouragement, and confidence into every room they enter.

If that's you, Soccer Shots might be the perfect fit.

We're looking for energetic, dependable coaches to lead fun, engaging soccer sessions for children ages 2-8.

This isn't just about soccer.

It's about helping children build confidence, develop character, and discover they can do hard things.

Who We Are
Soccer Shots is an engaging children's soccer program that positively impacts children's lives through the game of soccer. 

Our expert-designed curriculum combines age-appropriate soccer instruction with character development, helping children grow both on and off the field. 

Every week we help children build confidence, teamwork, perseverance, respect, and encouragement. 

We teach soccer.
We build people.

What You'll Do

• Lead fun, high-energy soccer sessions for children ages 2-8
• Safely manage groups of up to 12 children 
• Teach soccer skills using our proven curriculum 
• Encourage participation, effort, and confidence 
• Create a positive and engaging learning environment 
• Communicate professionally with families, schools, and staff 
• Maintain equipment and class rosters 
• Arrive prepared and on time for every session 

A Day in the Life
You'll arrive at a local preschool, childcare center, elementary school, or park and spend the next 30-45 minutes becoming the highlight of a child's day.

You'll lead games, celebrate successes, encourage efforts, and help children develop new skills while having a blast.

At the end of the session, you'll pack up your equipment and head home knowing you made a positive impact in the lives of children.

What You'll Receive 

• Paid training and curriculum provided 
• CPR & First Aid certification 
• Flexible part-time scheduling 
• Consistent seasonal schedules that make it easy to plan around school, work, or family commitments 
• Ongoing coaching and support 
• Leadership and professional development opportunities 

Most importantly, you'll have the opportunity to positively impact children every week.

Who We're Looking For
Many of our best coaches have backgrounds in teaching, childcare, church ministry, summer camps, youth mentoring, recreation, and education. 

No soccer experience is necessary. We provide all the training and curriculum you'll need. 

We're looking for people who: 

• Love working with children 
• Bring positive energy and enthusiasm 
• Communicate well with others 
• Are dependable and responsible 
• Want to make a meaningful difference 

This position is ideal for teachers, paraeducators, childcare professionals, education majors, and others who enjoy working with young children. 

If people often tell you, "Kids seem to love you,"  there's a good chance you'll thrive on our team.

Schedule

Available coaching opportunities include weekday mornings, weekday afternoons/evenings, and Saturday mornings.

Schedules remain consistent throughout each season, allowing coaches to build meaningful relationships with the same children, families, and schools week after week.
