Little Kickers Maitland & Newcastle are looking for a new coach to join our expanding team!

This role would be based in Newcastle and Maitland areas.

Little Kickers is a Soccer based learning program for children 18months to 8 years of age specialising in teaching kids so much more than just soccer. We are looking for an enthusiastic new coach to join our team who has the ability to facilitate classes and loves sport.

Soccer experience is a bonus, however potential applicants should understand it is not a requirement to have high level soccer experience as the level of skills we are teaching to the children can easily be picked up by sporty people with experienced coaches to assist you along the way.

Little Kickers has an opening for regular Weekday, Saturday &/or Sunday morning shifts, potential applicants must be available and willing to work every Saturday and join a Sunday roster. But don't worry, we will have you home by midday : )

Flexible casual hours available, many coaches work up to up to 15 hours a week but some choose just to work one shift of 2-4 hours if they wish. For many of our coaches its a paid passion.

We have many coaches that work / study full time and still enjoy coaching to enhance their studies or as a sporting interest.

Its a fantastic and rewarding experience and I would encourage anyone who is considering applying to contact me if they have further questions.

Whilst we employ new starters as "Assistant coaches" we are looking for people with an interest and drive towards being "lead coaches" and running classes.
