SOCCER SHOTS PINE BELT is looking for a passionate part-time soccer coach to serve children ages 2-5 throughout the Hattiesburg area.

Looking for a fun and flexible job? Join the Soccer Shots family and be the best part of a child’s week. Soccer Shots is an extra-curricular, youth enrichment program that goes into daycares/preschools and takes kids out of class for 30 minute soccer classes. Classes are held on site, at the schools. The ages we work with are 2-5 years old.

What We Offer

• Training - We offer a paid comprehensive training program to learn Soccer Shots’ curriculum, developmentally appropriate coaching techniques, and best practices. A few, short online courses are mandatory!
• Flexibility – The hours of our classes at the moment are Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9 AM to 12 PM. We also have a class at 1 PM on Wednesdays. As we grow, more classes and days of the week will be added to the schedule. The times of these classes are non-negotiable and any potential coach would need to be able to coach all of these classes during these times.
• Career Progression - We love to promote from within. Opportunities to take on full-time roles or internships in program coordination, coach management, marketing, partnerships, and more.
• Fun – Get ready to be active, laugh, cheer, and maybe even do a victory dance or two. Our coaches aren't just about teaching soccer; they're the smiling faces of our brand, delivering the unique Soccer Shots experience.
• YOUR IMPACT - It goes way beyond the field. Our inbox is filled with comments from families raving about our coaches who sparked passion for the game and helped build confidence in kids.

• Coaches are expected to run fun and efficient classes throughout the week. Each class is 30 minutes long and there will be multiple, back-to-back classes.
• Pay is not hourly, but based on the number of classes that a coach does. Starting pay for each 30 minute class is $12 and can increase to $15 after training is completed. Potential for increase in pay per class as season goes on (based on time spent coaching and performance)
