Thank you for your interest in Kids On The Move! Our program would not be possible without the help of volunteers like you! We are looking for individuals who are interested and enthusiastic about helping coach at school and community-based kids running and fitness clubs. Your application will be used to help us understand your specific interest and availability, which will then help us to find the club that would benefit the most from your coaching. As a coach, a primary role you play is to encourage physical activity to youngsters in a nurturing way. Previous coaching experience is not necessary but a passion for active living is preferred.
If selected, please consider that you will need to commit to the following:
- Attend a new coach meeting, to be scheduled via Calendly, prior to the start of the spring season (week of 2/17)
- Attend the Spring Season Open House, which will include both new and veteran coaches from across the region, on Thursday February 6th anytime between 4pm - 7pm. The Open House will be held at Sports Backers new Active Living Hub, located at 4921 Lakeside Avenue in Richmond.
- Regular attendance at your assigned club for the spring season, with the hope that you will continue for years to come! It's really important that we provide consistent role models to the kids that we work with so please only apply if you plan to serve as a coach for more than one season.
- Completion of a background check.
