Pickleball Coach (for kids)

About the Role

We’re officially launching pickleball and looking for an enthusiastic, reliable coach to help us build something special from the ground up — with real opportunity to grow hours, locations, and leadership as the program expands. This starts part-time, but the goal is growth — more hours, more days, and more locations as enrollment increases. If you’re someone who wants to help shape a program (not just show up and clock out), this is for you.

Initial Launch Locations & Schedule

• Liberty School – Petaluma (Fridays): 4th-6th grade, 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM
• Flyte Racquet Club (Weekends): Weekend sessions, likely mornings — exact times TBD based on coach availability

What We’re Looking For

• Pickleball experience (teaching or playing)
• Comfortable working with kids
• Positive, energetic, and dependable
• Excited about growing pickleball in the community

Nice To Have (or Willing To Obtain)

• PPR (Professional Pickleball Registry) Certification
• Pickleball Certification through the Racquet Sports Professionals Association (RSPA)

While this role is specifically for pickleball, there’s also opportunity to teach tennis and/or golf for candidates who have those skills and want additional hours.

Requirements

• Strong sports background with general sports knowledge
• Must have reliable transportation as all programs are run at local schools and parks
• Ability to communicate effectively and build strong relationships with children and parents
• Must be punctual (classes are held after school in the afternoons and children are counting on you)
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• Bring your personality to make classes fun
• Maintain Equipment and Kit bags
• Update class rosters and complete student progress reports

Pay

$40-50 per class+ (depending on experience and performance)
