"A coach will impact more people in a year than the average person does in a lifetime"
GFYAA appreciates and thanks all of their volunteer coaches for their commitment and dedication.
VOLUNTEER COACHES are the backbone of our association and, as such, they have the greatest impact on a participant’s fundamental skills development and overall level of enjoyment. The type of volunteer coach we are looking for is one who believes that teaching skills and fundamental concepts in a safe manner is more important than winning the game. Perspective is key. We are interested in coaches who set the example, who wish to be good mentors, and who can effectively model the tenants of leadership, sportsmanship, and teamwork to the participants.
A great coach will serve many roles: technical supporter, motivator, leader, psychologist, and maybe most importantly, as a role model for the athlete to follow in the competition arena as well as out.
Any individual that would like to volunteer as a Head Coach or Assistant coach will need to read and acknowledge to the GFYAA guidelines along with completing the coaches application linked below.
