Become a Volunteer - Coach Youth Sports

DO MORE. BE MORE.

At the Y, we believe when people come together for a common cause, the whole community is strengthened. When you become a volunteer, you have the opportunity to share your talents, strengths and gifts to bless those who need it most.
 

Volunteer coaching is a powerful opportunity to instill positive values and help kids develop healthy habits that extend far beyond the playing field. Our coaches provide a safe, healthy atmosphere, teach fundamentals of the game and promote the benefits of physical activity and teamwork.
 

As a volunteer coach, you become part of the Y family and build a sense of community and spirit within your squad for life. Prior experience is helpful, but the only requirement is to lead youth as their mentor and hero. When you help children, you make a difference in their lives … and yours.
