Volunteer Coaching

Coach with BGCK

Our sports programs depend on dedicated volunteer coaches who bring energy, knowledge, and a positive attitude to the field and court. Whether you played a sport in high school, coached your own kids, or simply love working with young people, we have a place for you.

Volunteer coaches receive training and support from the BGCK Sports Department, including practice plans, rules and procedures, and access to equipment. You do not need to be an expert — you just need to care about helping kids learn, grow, and have fun.

What to Expect as a Volunteer Coach

• Training & Support: The Sports Department provides practice plans, coaching guidelines, and ongoing support throughout the season.
• Time Commitment: Most coaching roles involve one practice and one game per week during the season, typically lasting 6-10 weeks.
• Background Check: All volunteer coaches must pass a background check before working with youth. Our staff will guide you through this process.
• Equipment Provided: All game and practice equipment is supplied by the Boys & Girls Club.
• Emphasis on Fun: Our programs emphasize sportsmanship, teamwork, and character development. Winning is secondary to helping kids enjoy the game.
