Through Soccer Shots, we've impacted thousands of children in and around our communities. We attribute much of our success to the dedicated, fun, and a little bit crazy team we've put together. We're passionate about what we do, and are looking to add people to our team who feel the same -- people who are fired up about the idea of impacting the next generation through the game of soccer.

    Soccer Shots coaches are:

    Safety-conscious, whose #1 priority is the safety of children under their care.

    Caring, engaging with each child through specific and positive affirmation.

    Organized, who plan ahead and are systematic in routine, conducting each session according to the lesson plan and working with children to maintain appropriate order for the age group.

    Responsible, who are committed to doing what is expected of them as the coach and "face" of Soccer Shots.

    Energetic, bringing Soccer Shots to life by creating a fun and exciting atmosphere that leads a child to smile and participate.
