Head Coach
About the role
Soccer 5 is coming to Texas. Our first location will open in Everman, with six outdoor fields designed to give players, families, teams, coaches, and the community a great place to play and connect. The facility will host field rentals, pickup soccer, leagues, youth training, camps, birthday parties, and private events. As Head Coach, you own the development of youth programming for our Everman facility and ensure that every player that walks through our door loves the game. Everything else — engagement, parent trust, retention — follows from whether players actually are having a good time. For us, development is important but secondary to the experience that players are having. The goal is to grow the game. This is a builder role. During launch you'll be on the field yourself, running sessions and setting the tempo. The long-term goal is not for you to coach every session. It's to build a staff of coaches who correct technique, run organized high-energy sessions, and hold the standard when you're not standing next to them. You'll also be the face families see and trust. You'll own sign ups, renewals, and more. This is a full-time, on-site position. Evening and weekend availability is required, plus some daytime hours during launch.
