Volunteer: Come be a Youth Sports Coach at the Y!


YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Do you love sports? Do you enjoy teaching kids how to play and work together? Well, youth sports is the place for you! The youth in our community need strong role models and leaders to help teach them the fundamentals of sports while incorporating the four Core Values of the YMCA (Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility). What better way to make a difference in a child’s life than to teach them teamwork in a fun, non-competitive environment?

Currently looking for help in the following programs:

Winter Basketball League January 5th - February 19th. 

Commitment includes one 45 min practice and one 45 min game a week.

Times range from 4pm - 7:30pm.

Practices are Mondays or Tuesdays and games are Wednesdays.

WHY GET INVOLVED

From serving as a role model to watching the incredible transformation each season brings, coaching will leave you inspired. 

Every moment you spend volunteering helps uncover the confidence, strength, and limitless potential of kids here in Whatcom County .

As volunteers, this is your chance to reconnect with the sports you loved growing up or learn to play for the first time along with your kids!              

WE PROVIDE EVERYTHING YOU NEED

As a coach, you will:

Receive all the tools and support you need to lead interactive and easy-to-follow lessons with your co-coaches.

Help kids grow their confidence and fall in love with new sports they can participate in for the rest of their life!

Experience the positive impacts yourself!
