5-Eleven Hoops is looking for enthusiastic and compassionate volunteers to help neurodivergent children unlock their potential through sports!

Why: As a Youth Sports Instructor Volunteer, you'll play an essential role in creating a fun, safe, and inclusive space for children on the Autism Spectrum to build confidence, teamwork, and physical skills.

Collaborate with other volunteers and staff to organize and facilitate engaging, age-appropriate sessions.

A passion for working with children, especially those on the Autism Spectrum or with developmental differences.

Patience, strong communication skills, and a positive attitude.

Basic knowledge of basketball or other sports.

Willingness to undergo a background check upon application.

Previous experience in coaching or working with neurodivergent individuals is helpful but not required.

Minimum age requirement: 16.

Time commitment: Consistent participation is encouraged to build meaningful relationships with participants, but there are no strict minimum requirements.

Basketball sessions: Tuesdays from 5:00-7:00 PM (Long Beach) and Saturdays from 9:30 AM-12:30 PM (Long Beach).
