What are the responsibilities and job description for the Early Childhood Sports Coach position at Americas Got Soccer?
At AGS we provide fun, engaging experiences, creating lasting memories for the youth and families in our communities and we're looking for energetic, enthusiastic, and kid-friendly soccer coaches to join our team!
Our program starts with children aged as young as 18 months and gets them excited about "organized activities." At that age, it's way more about fun and fist pumps than it is about soccer. However, our children quickly progress into kicks, goals and even scrimmages. By the time they hit ages 5 or 6 we introduce them to scrimmages and then onto more competitive play thereafter. We continue to progress through to our oldest kids, who can be as old as 13, and are more focused on game-like situations and skill development.
We are currently hiring for Toddler coaches who have experience working with children ages 2-5 years.
