Coaches

Note to Parents

Our Recreation Commission programs rely on volunteer parent coaches. We understand that not everybody is able to set aside the time each season to be a head coach, but please help out any way you can. Even if you’re unable to be at every practice or every game, you can still be an assistant coach who can help out the head coach when needed. Please speak with your coach and see in what way you can help. Our parent coaches volunteer their time and talent and we need to make sure that we are supportive of their efforts. With the cooperation of all the parents, we can ensure a positive and successful season.
