INTERESTED IN BEING A VOLUNTEER OR COACH?
Sunfish takes great pride in our coaching staff. We believe we have one of the strongest and most dedicated coaching team in BCSSA.
Our coaches are top swimming and excel in their respective sports as well. They know how to coach because they know how to compete and we provide support and on-going mentorship and feedback!
In addition to being great athletes, every Sunfish coach brings their own set of credentials whether they are certified through NCCP National Coaching levels and/or Life Saving BC certification through swim and lifesaving instructor, first aid and other related Coaching Association of Canada courses.
In helping build a greater and bigger community within the Club, many Sunfish coaches also began as Little Fishy swimmers/players who can relate to their membership and have progressed their way from being a volunteer coach to being a junior/senior coach who have also spent several years learning from our Head Coaches.
If you are interested in being a Coach, send an email to vpcoaching@ndsunfish.com and take the first step by volunteering.
