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:
- Complete the Kids On The Move New Coach Training, which includes watching a training video, reviewing a folder of materials, completing a short quiz, and completing a background check (the cost of which is covered by Kids On The Move).
- Attend the Fall Season Coaches Kick-Off, which will include both new and veteran coaches from across the region, on Tuesday, September 16th, 2025. The Kick-Off will start at 5pm and will be held at the Sports Backers Active Living Hub (4921 Lakeside Ave. Henrico)
- Regular attendance at your assigned club for the 2025-2026 school year, with the hope that you will continue for years to come!
