More Than a Coaching Job. A Leadership Opportunity.

This role combines coaching, leadership, relationship-building, and community engagement, giving you the opportunity to positively impact hundreds of children while helping expand one of the nation's leading children's enrichment franchises.
As the Lead Preschool Coach, you'll become the primary Soccer Shots representative for your assigned schools and childcare partners. You'll coach engaging soccer enrichment programs, build lasting relationships with preschool directors, teachers, and families, maintain exceptional program quality, and help introduce Soccer Shots to even more children throughout the Fontana community.

Additional evening or weekend opportunities may occasionally become available through public programs, camps, community events, training, or special activities.
Because our schools and families rely on consistency, we're looking for someone who values reliability and can make a commitment to supporting our programs throughout the school year (August through May).

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build a long-term career with an organization that believes in promoting from within and investing in great people.
