Job description

We are looking to contract our teams for the 2024-25 season and are currently searching for football coaches to join us for our holiday clubs based in Harrogate at February half term, Easter, May half term and Summer (Dates below)

February half term; 17th-21st Feb
Easter; 7th-17th April
May half term; 27th-30th May
Summer; 21st July-29th August

We are keen to hear from candidates from sports, education and childcare setting backgrounds. You may be a student studying a sports or education related degree, a supply teacher, TA or HLTA looking for work during the holidays, or a sports coach working in local schools wanting holiday club work. If you have an FA level 1, 2 or UEFA B award and coach at a local club, and have experience working with children and sports, we want to hear from you!

Our holiday clubs run every single half term and Summer - we are flexible in the work we are able to offer to you according to your needs. For example, you may want to work only set half terms or only a few weeks of Summer; we can cater to your requirements and offer as much work as you would like.

What will I be doing on camp?

Our award-winning holiday clubs are brilliant places to work! You will be assigned a group of children to work with each day and provided with an activity timetable by your camp manager. Your role is to deliver amazing experiences for children aged 5-13 on our football specific holiday club programme. As a coach, your role is to be like a big kid! We want our coaches to get involved as much as possible during the day, which means taking part in penalty shootouts, matches, and tournaments!

If you want to spend half terms and Summers making amazing memories with children, working alongside highly qualified coaches, receiving quality training and feedback whilst gaining invaluable experience in the industry, this role is for you!

Experience working with children is a prerequisite. Working with children in a football club or football academy setting is a must, along with a proven track record of delivering football sessions to large groups over a period of time.

For those wishing to gain more experience, limited placement opportunities are available. For our most exceptional staff, permanent work may be available in our partner schools throughout the school year.

Please submit your C.V., detailing your availability and experience. Successful staff will receive market leading training, progression opportunities, access to our Total Sports Staff Loyalty Programme and a competitive rate of pay.
