Seasonal Coach

At Founders Classical Academies we promote a two thousand year old liberal arts and sciencestradition. Our school is classical, but it is also, in a manner of speaking, cutting edge. In fact, we promote the somewhat countercultural notion that students are made for, and should beeducated for, much more than jobs and careers. We view students for who and what they are,dignified human beings endowed with natural rights and gifts. With this in mind, we have atremendous responsibility to help parents cultivate students and their gifts so they can live good and happy lives in a state of liberty. This is the essence of a liberal arts education.Qualifications:Education Requirements:Minimum of an Associate's degree or equivalent from two-year collegeBachelors degree preferredMinimum Qualifications (Knowledge, Skills and/or Abilities Required)Must possess effective coaching techniques and skills.Ability to work with children, love for children and learningMust possess a thorough knowledge of the rules, regulations, strategies, and techniquesof the sport.Must possess the ability to establish and maintain effective working relationships withschool administrators, parents, and students.Responsibilities and Duties:Holds organizational meetings for team prospects and encourages potential athletes toparticipate in the sport.Assesses player's skills and assigns team positions.Coaches and instructs players, individually or in groups, regarding the rules, regulations, equipment and techniques of the sport.Observes players, during competition and practice to determine the needs for individual or team improvement.Establishes and maintains standards of pupil behavior and provides proper supervision of athletes at all times.Follows established procedures in the event of an athlete's injury.Conferences with parents/guardians, as necessary, regarding the athletic performance of their student.Follows state, regional, and district regulations governing the athletic program.Models sports-like behavior and maintains appropriate conduct towards players, officials, and spectators.Follows established procedures for the proper care, maintenance, and requisitioning ofequipment, supplies, and uniforms.Models nondiscriminatory practices in all activities.Other Duties as assignedWork Environment
