Become a Volunteer Coach
Volunteering to coach a youth athletic team is a great way to
be involved with the community and play an important role in
providing a positive experience to our youth. The more parents
are involved with the program, the more valuable the experience.
It takes numerous coaches to provide each player with the
attention they need to improve. All head coaches receive training
in positive coaching techniques. Volunteers must complete an
application and background check which may be found online or
picked up at West Ridge Center, 636 Ridge Road.
