Burlington Parks & Recreation gives you the tools and resources needed to be a successful coach. No experience necessary!
Coaches must complete three certificate trainings (Safe Sport, Sudden Cardiac Arrest, Concussion Compliance) and a background check prior to roster assignment. There is NO COST to you for the trainings or background check.

How Do I Become a Coach or an Assistant Coach?
- Complete the sign-up steps by June 30. You’ll be asked to log into your account or to create one.
