We are seeking a dedicated and passionate Baseball Coach to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in sports coaching and a commitment to educating young athletes in the fundamentals of baseball. This role involves not only teaching the skills necessary for success on the field but also fostering teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship among players.
Did you coach your kid’s baseball team and miss being on the field? Maybe they’ve aged out or play for another organization now, and you don’t have time for weeknight practices—but you still love coaching and want to stay involved in the game.

Coached your child’s team and miss working with young players
Don’t have time for weekday practices, but have some weekends free
Want a flexible, stress-free way to stay in the game
Believe coaching is about helping kids grow, not just chasing wins
Would love to make extra money doing what you love
