Location: 307 W. Dauphin Street, Philadelphia, PA, 19133
Project Details
We are looking for coaches for our after school soccer programs at schools and recreation centers, for our Saturday introductory soccer program and for our travel teams.

The Kensington Soccer Club offers soccer at a low or no cost to low-income children - girls and boys - ages 3 to 19, in Philadelphia, mainly in the Kensington community.

This summer, beginning in early August, we will start training for several competitive teams for girls and boys ages 7 to 10, playing in a Philadelphia Parks and Recreation Fall Outdoor League and possibly other teams as well.

Starting in September, we will offer an outdoor recreational program one or two evenings a week and Saturday or Sunday mornings or early afternoons at Third and Dauphin Streets in Philadelphia and possibly at several other Kensington-area locations. (Here is a Google map of our main field: https://goo.gl/maps/tQtJftFw4SHY5Pex9)

And we will have summer soccer opportunities for teens - details TBD.

Experience in playing and knowledge of soccer a big plus. Coaching experience and / or experience working with children a big plus. Commitment to providing a caring and supportive environment for children a very big plus. Ability to speak languages other than English, especially Spanish, a plus.

We are looking for people who are willing to make a commitment to work with a team for at least one 8 to 10-week season, helping the children grow and develop in both soccer skills and personal development - learning teamwork and having healthy interactions with other children.

We also have a SAVE - Soccer Athletes Value Education - Table on weekends, with educational enrichment and reading to children who participate in our program.
