Boulder Swim Team is a non profit USA Swimming club program of 80 swimmers in Boulder, CO. We are currently seeking new coaching talent to bring their personality and unique experience to our club! Applicants can expect a flexible work schedule, a conscious and competitive environment, and coaches who work together for the betterment of the team and athletes in the program.
Prospective coaches should primarily enjoy being around kids and athletes of all ages and levels and expect to coach all ages and abilities. We strive to build a lifelong love of swimming through the culture of our community, helping to provide world class competitive instruction in a fun environment where the primary goal is the long term success of the athlete. Our model is predicated on excellent coaching instruction and education delivered consistently throughout the swimmers career.
In building a solid foundation for the future of our program, we ask that applicants have experience in swimming. Applicants should have an understanding of the 4 strokes and have been a member of a swim team in the past. Current USA Swimming coaching certifications are preferred, as are American Swim Coaches Association certifications of any level. Coaches will need to acquire their USA Swimming Coaches certification within 90 days of joining the club, and will need to complete a background check before hiring if they do not currently hold USAS certifications. This is a part time, year round position. Hourly compensation begins at $20hr with growth to $26 upon completion of certifications.
Coaches will work primarily with our Stroke School (developmental 10 and under) Speed School (developmental 11-14) and Age Group (competitive 10 and under) groups. Hours available are Mon-Fri from 330-730pm, but will average 8-12 per week. Coaches will need to be able to be on their feet or in the water for 2-3 hours at a time, actively moving throughout practices. During the summer, coaches will also be outdoors. Coaches with current USAS certifications can make themselves available for swim meets that can be as much as 20 hours 1-2 weekend(s) per month.
