Looking for a fun, flexible, high-energy job that builds your resume and makes a real impact?
Soccer Shots is hiring part-time Youth Sports Coaches to lead engaging sports sessions for young children. This is a great opportunity for college students, student-athletes, future teachers and coaches, sports management and education majors, childcare workers, camp counselors, and anyone who loves working with kids!
Soccer is the primary foundation of this role. Coaches should expect to lead soccer sessions as their core responsibility each week. As our program continues to grow, coaches may also have the opportunity to support introductory basketball and movement-based enrichment programs.

Head Coach: $44/hr
Program Lead: $48/hr
Additional Earning Opportunities
Weekday substitute coaching: $4/hr above standard coaching rate
