Our aim is to promote development of the whole student, in accordance with the following guidelines.
- Good sportsmanship by all is essential, and is expected of all participants in athletic endeavors.
- Basic skills development and understanding of the game are two of the major emphases of our athletic program, versus competition and winning.
- All athletes shall have an opportunity to participate in each game, regardless of their level of ability, as long as they attend required practices and exhibit acceptable behavior. Learning by doing at this young age is an essential means by which to acquire new skills and to develop and build talented athletes.
- Early in the sports program, athletes should have the opportunity to experience playing different positions in a particular sport, so that they can learn and develop the skills which each position requires, while determining those positions that they like and in which they excel. It should be expected, however, that players would ultimately be assigned positions to which they are best suited.
- All athletes shall be encouraged and commended when they do well. Positive reinforcement of student-athletes of this age is absolutely vital!
- Athletes are to have fun.
- Student athletes shall be treated as what they are...kids!
Job Requirements:
- Applicants should submit a letter of interest, resume, and three letters of recommendation as well as a list of references.
- The hired candidate will need to have a background check, will do mandatory trainings, and will follow athletic policies.
- Proof of Concussion training is required
- At least 2 years of relevant experience preferred
- High School/Trade School degree
- Citizenship, residency or work visa required
