VOLUNTEER COACHING PROGRAM
An opportunity for skaters to start their journey to coaching.
Volunteer Coaching Program
SFFSC prides itself on our commitment to continuing Coach education and development. Our Volunteer Coach program is an integral part of the success of our Learn To Skate USA program. We greatly value our Volunteer Coaches as they are a huge asset to making LTS a unique and wonderful experience for all skaters. At its core, this program is an educational opportunity for our skaters to explore the exciting world of coaching under the guidance of our Learn to Skate Coordinator and Senior coaching staff.
Volunteer Coaches will use their time during class to observe, demonstrate skills, and act as general support. This is a ‘hands off’ role, meaning that Volunteer coaches will only assist from a distance and will not actively instruct students.
