Special Olympics Volleyball Coach
ORGANIZATION: Special Olympics PA
Please visit the new page to apply.
Our Special Olympics program in Lehigh County is in need of a new head coach for the volleyball team! As head coach, you would create, organize and lead a volleyball training program for a team of athletes and volunteers. You'll have other volunteers assisting to make sure that practice runs smoothly.
Practice takes place at Whitehall Middle School on Wednesday evenings, and the season runs until November.
We can provide additional trainings on coaching volleyball, as well as other resources. Experience the joy of Special Olympics as a volunteer in Lehigh County!
If you are interested, please reach out to us at volunteer@specialolympicspa.org or you can register to volunteer at portals.specialolympics.org.
