We are a volunteer-led youth sports league, and we rely on parent volunteers to keep our programs running and affordable for families. Coaching and team support roles are filled by parents like you, and your involvement helps us offer quality experiences at a low cost.
When you volunteer as a head coach, you’ll enjoy these benefits:
Choose your assistant coach
Pick your practice days and times
Receive a free Family RecPASS for the duration of your volunteer season
If your child is placed on a team without a coach, we will need a parent to step up—teams cannot move forward without volunteer support. Thank you for helping us create a strong, supportive, and affordable program for our community!
