Volunteer Coaching

Help our youth learn valuable life skills and develop healthy fitness habits that will last a lifetime through fun and recreational youth sports! 

Youth Sports and Fitness needs coaches for all age groups and sports. 

Perks of being a Coaching Parent 

If you're a head coach, all your children signed up for the sport you're coaching can play for free. If you're an assistant coach, one child plays for free and all additional children are 15% off. 

Coaches who have youth within CDC or SAC, can also earn Parent Participation point. 

Perks of being a Coaching Soldier 

You can earn MOVSM hours and Commander's Cup points!
