Make a difference in the lives of young girls this fall as a Girls on the Run of Greater Richmond Coach! We are looking for our Fall 2017 Girls on the Run Coaches. Applications are currently being accepted!
Each season Girls on the Run of Greater Richmond recruits and selects a dynamic group of coaches to lead each of our teams of 10-20 girls. Coaches are parents, teachers, school administrators, college students and other community members who are committed to developing and celebrating our girls.
GOTR coaches are enthusiastic, dedicated, and positive women and men of all different backgrounds! Some are athletes and some are not; many have never coached before. All are committed to empowering girls with valuable life lessons. Coaches must have availability on weekday afternoons, twice per week over a 12-week fall season. We are able to take a limited amount of assistant coaches who can commit to 1-day a week for an entire season.

Mission Statement
At Girls on the Run of Greater Richmond (GOTR) we envision a world where every girl knows and activates her limitless potential and is free to boldly pursue her dreams. This vision becomes reality as we inspire girls to be joyful, healthy and confident using a fun, experienced-based curriculum which creatively integrates running. Our council is working to bring diverse voices to the table as we know that unique perspectives strengthen the quality and scope of our organization. We pledge to be a reflection of the communities we engage, not only in appearance, but also through fostering an atmosphere of community connectedness that serves as a model for our girls and other stakeholders.
Description
Girls on the Run is a transformational physical activity based positive youth development program for girls in 3rd through 8th grade. We teach critical life skills through dynamic interactive lessons and running games. The program culminates with the girls being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5K event.
The goal of the program is to unleash confidence through accomplishment while establishing a lifetime of appreciation of health and fitness.
