Job description

Hoopstars is one of the largest and fastest-growing private youth sports organizations in the GTA. We run fun, engaging coaching sessions that build confidence and create lasting memories for the youth and families in our communities! We’re looking for Lead Basketball Coaches / Youth Coach Managers to join our team. Managerial experience in youth sports is a must.

Our program starts with children from the ages of 2-10 years of age, and gets them excited about "organized activities." At that age, it's way more about fun and fist pumps than it is about winning. However, as players grow we focus on dribbling, passing, shooting, and teamwork. By the time they hit ages 5 or 6 we introduce them to scrimmages and then onto more competitive play thereafter. We continue to progress through to our older kids, who can be more focused on game-like situations and skill development.

Requirements

  • Passionate about working with and engaging young children and youth.
  • Managerial experience in youth sports is a must.
  • Availability on weekday evenings and weekends.
  • Reliable and professional.
  • Energetic, enthusiastic, and outgoing personality who enjoys working with children, parents, and co-workers.
  • Able to be playful, fun, and imaginative with children.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to effectively interact with children and deliver feedback to parents.
  • High energy individual who is physically fit and able to coach young children and youth for 2+ hours
  • Available to work through Summer and Winter seasons.
  • Access to a vehicle for work purposes

Ideal Experience:

  • Managerial experience in youth sports, managing coaches, overseeing youth coaching sessions
  • Experience marketing and growing youth sports programs
  • High preference for experience in fun youth sports environments

Benefits

Compensation: $24-27 p/h
