Volunteer to Coach

Our program is only successful because of the overwhelming support of our parents who choose to volunteer as coaches each year. As a reward for their willingness to help, we are offering a full recreation registration reimbursement for those who are willing to volunteer coach. We are looking for volunteers who are responsible, interested in investing in the growth of our youth, and willing to commit to attending each week. We're looking for both head coaches and assistant coaches. No experience necessary at the rec level. All coaches will be asked to participate in a 60-90 minute training session where we'll provide you with guidance and tools to help make this upcoming season a success. This training is a requirement to be eligible for the reimbursement. Reimbursements are paid out in the last week of soccer. All coaches are required to undergo a background check before the first night of soccer.

Mandatory coach meeting (mid to end of April) may contain:

• coaching tips and tricks

• coaching expectations

• intro to practice plans

• demo of practice plan

• rules of the game

• equipment handout

• Q & A session

• additional resources and helpful websites
