Currently seeking volunteers for FYI Purgolders Basketball Coaches!
You don't need previous coaching experience- just the passion to work with youth! We provide training and support throughout the season, including: coaches clinics, resources for practices, tips on game management, resources and support for working with youth, regular check-ins & accessible staff, and mileage reimbursement. The FYI Purgolders Staff handles things like registration, facility rentals and scheduling, and most parent communication to allow coaches to just coach.

Mission Statement

Description
The Goodman Community Center is not your average community center. As I get to talking with people about Goodman, they inevitably end up surprised. They’re surprised by how many programs and resources we offer, how beautiful our facilities are, or how many people we serve. Every year more than 30,000 people use the Center - some who come to one event, others who are very familiar faces here.
Thanks to our generous community, we just built and moved into a second beautiful facility across the street, the Brassworks building. We’re now reconfiguring and refreshing the Center’s first home on Waubesa Street, the Ironworks building. During this past ten years, we’ve nearly doubled in size.
Our staff are committed to learning and continually improving, too. That’s why each program uses a variety of tools to measure impacts for both the program overall, and for each individual participant. We use that data to constantly fine-tune what we do - and how we do it.
We’re glad Goodman is one of many organizations in the Madison area who are pouring themselves into making our community great - for us all. We hope you’ll join us. Because we know that every good thing that happens here is made possible by people like you.
