Job Description

Be the Coach Who Makes a Difference

Do you love soccer and working with kids?
Imagine spending your afternoons inspiring smiles, building confidence, and turning your passion into purpose — all while getting paid to have fun.

We’re looking for awesome, energetic, and caring Soccer Coaches to lead our afterschool programs for kids ages 5–11 across the East Bay.

Whether you’ve coached before or you’re just getting started, we provide full training and support. All you need is a great attitude and a desire to make a positive impact.

What You’ll Get

• Earn $20–$45/hour (yes, seriously!)
• Flexible scheduling : You choose how many classes you want (5–15 per week)
• Comprehensive training — no prior soccer coaching experience required
• Incentives and rewards for doing what you love
• Supportive, fun-loving team that feels like family

What You’ll Be Doing

• Lead engaging soccer classes for kids ages 1–12
• Bring energy, creativity, and encouragement to every session
• Create a positive, inclusive environment where every child can thrive
• Use our proven curriculum to make each class developmentally fun and impactful
• Be a role model — both on and off the field

Why Kids (and Parents) LOVE Soccer Stars

• Small class sizes with individual attention
• Non-competitive and pressure-free environment
• Classes packed with fun, movement, and learning
• Coaches who truly care and connect with every child

Who We’re Looking For

You might be a great fit if you:

• Naturally light up around children and love to make them smile
• Have experience working with kids (teaching, coaching, camps, babysitting, etc.)
• Love being active, playful, and positive
• Want to make a real impact in your community through youth development
• Are available to coach on weekday afternoons and Saturday and Sunday mornings
• Have a strong sense of responsibility and reliability

(Bonus points if you love soccer — but if you're great with kids, we’ll teach you the rest!)

What You’ll Gain

• Confidence in leading groups and managing a class
• Growth in leadership, communication, and teamwork
• Joy in knowing you’ve made a difference in a child’s day (and life!)
• A job that’s active, fulfilling, and just plain fun

At Soccer Stars Contra Costa, we believe every child is an athlete — and every coach has the power to inspire. If you’re ready to coach, lead, laugh, and grow, we’d love to meet you!

Benefits

• This part-time role has a starting rate of $20-$30 per hour (depending on experience) and allows you the flexibility to set your preferred schedule!
• Coach referral program of $100 for every coach you recommend that stays 60 days
• Retention bonuses at 6 and 12 months
• Seasonal Attendance Bonuses up to $250
• Coach of the Month Bonuses
• Sponsored sports and first aid certifications
