Summer Soccer Coach
About The Position
We are a fast-growing leader in children’s programming who offer high-quality bike, swim and soccer lessons across North America. By teaching fundamental skills, building confidence and igniting their sense of adventure, we can forever impact the life of a child. Pedalheads also offers a generous bursary program and give back program through annual social giving, and we are continuously working on meaningful ways to make communities better for having us there. We are looking for confident characters to teach foundational soccer skills to our 2–12 year old soccer stars. Pedalheads Soccer is a program like no other which requires our coaches to channel their inner child and put their imagination and creativity to the test. Our coaches use humor, songs and story-telling to make our little players fall in love with soccer. We are looking for coaches who can instruct our year-round weekend classes and our seasonal camps that run Monday - Friday in the Summer. Either role would be well-fitted for someone who has, or is working on, their Early Childhood Education qualification or enjoys team sports or performing arts. Experience in either playing or coaching sports is preferred though this does not have to be soccer specific, as full training will be given.
