We provide training, soccer equipment, and all curriculum materials. We offer rewarding work in a great environment with the opportunity to inspire the youth soccer players of the community.

    Caring, you engage with each child through specific and positive affirmation.

    Organized, you 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, you are committed to doing what is expected as the coach and "face" of Soccer Shots.
