BY FAMILY & MWR CHILD YOUTH SERVICES (CYS) YOUTH SPORTS & FITNESS
Youth Sports Plex is actively looking for volunteers who are interested in coaching sports to children. This is a rewarding commitment to teach and watch as students progress in the sport. It is a commitment that needs to be seen through the entire season. Those who are interested in coaching need to fill out a volunteer background check, fingerprints processing and
clearance. Trainings such as CPR/First Aid, Concussion awareness, Fire Prevention, Ages and Stages, Child Abuse will be provided by Child & Youth Services (CYS). Volunteer coaches must be prepared to spend 2-5 hours a week between practices and games. For more information, call CYS Youth Sports and Fitness at 915-568-2617.
