About Mindful Roots

Mindful Roots offers high-energy sports classes for elementary and middle school students. Our goal is to inspire and empower kids through sports—building skills, confidence, teamwork, and a lifelong love for movement. We see sports as more than just games—they're lessons for life.

The Role

We’re looking for a passionate and responsible After School Volleyball Coach to lead our 6th-grade co-d volleyball teams. This hands-on role involves coaching practices, leading game days, and creating a fun, inclusive, and safe environment for all players.

Key Responsibilities

· Lead one practice each week and coach one game per week.

· Teach volleyball fundamentals, strategies, and good sportsmanship.

· Ensure all players get fair playing time and stay engaged.

· Supervise students on and off the field, including travel to away games and safe pick-up by parents.

· Set up, transport, and store equipment for practices and games.

· Be punctual and committed to the full 10-week season.

Schedule & Practice Options

Practices: One hour, once a week. You choose the day: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday, between 2:45-3:45 PM (depending on the school).

Games: Wednesdays, from 2:15–4:45 PM (roughly 2.5 hours).

You can select your preferred practice day, which helps you plan your schedule. However, game days are always on Wednesdays.

Note: The season follows the school calendar, with holidays off.

Qualifications

· Prior youth volleyball coaching experience preferred.

· Strong understanding of volleyball fundamentals and strategies.

· Reliable, punctual, and committed for the full season.

· Ability to travel with the team to away games and ensure student safety.

· Reliable transportation to your assigned school site.

Opportunity for Growth

This coaching position can lead to additional opportunities within Mindful Roots. We often need coaches for other sports (like basketball and soccer) in subsequent seasons, which start immediately after the current season ends in December. Coaches who can handle multiple sports are especially encouraged to apply.
