Job description

Overview

CSP is one of the largest and fastest-growing private youth sports organizations in the GTA. We create fun, engaging experiences that build confidence and lasting memories for the youth and families in our communities! We're looking for energetic, enthusiastic, and kid-friendly basketball coaches to join our team!

Our program starts with children from the ages of 2-10 years of age, and gets them excited about "organized activities." At that age, it's more about fun and fist pumps than winning. As players grow, we focus on dribbling, passing, shooting, and teamwork. By the time they hit ages 5 or 6 we introduce scrimmages and then move to more competitive play. We continue to progress through to older kids, who can be more focused on game-like situations and skill development.

We are currently hiring for Youth Basketball Coaches who have experience working with children from ages 2-10. Preference is given to coaches with experience across a wider age range.
