    Description

    Youth Sports Coach (Lil' Bumpers - Volleyball)

    The Youth Sports Coach is responsible for delivering fun, friendly, and structured weekly youth development classes for children aged 18 months to 12 years. These classes focus on sport-specific activities and games that promote each child's development in a safe and creative learning environment. The ideal candidate is enthusiastic, energetic, professional and enjoys working with children. Coaches must be effective communicators, team players, and organized individuals who can manage children’s behavior. Above all, they should foster a fun and engaging environment for learning and play. The Youth Sports Coach reports directly to the Program Coordinator.

    The Youth Sports Coach will supervise and independently teach youth development classes with up to 15 students. They serve as the primary point of contact for students and parents, providing excellent customer service while welcoming new participants and orienting them to the program. Coaches are expected to greet all participants before and after each class, answering questions about the Youth Sports Programs and maintaining a detailed knowledge of the facility and its other offerings. A pre-set curriculum may be provided, but coaches are welcome to incorporate their own creative ideas that develop the same skills. A Youth Sports Coach should expect to receive continuous feedback and support from the General Manager.
