    Description

    Do you love pickleball and want to make a meaningful impact to your local community? Special Olympics of Wayne County is looking for passionate, dedicated and knowledgable volunteers to join us as pickleball coaches for local Special Olympics athletes.

    As a Special Olympics pickleball coach, you will help local athletes learn and improve their pickleball skills by bringing game knowledge, enthusiasm, commitment, and a positive attitude to each practice, event and competition. You will meaningfully enrich the lives of our athletes in life-changing ways by building physical and social skills and instilling self-confidence.

    If you're a knowledgable pickleball player and have a few extra hours each month to help local intellectually disabled athletes learn, compete, grow and have fun, this is the opportunity for you!

    Our goal is to begin a weekly practice at a local pickleball court where athletes can learn and develop skills.

    Exact location: TBD - Local Pickleball Court(s)

    Practice Times: TBD - dependent upon Coach and course availability

    Only pickleball knowledge required, we provide the training you need to be a successful coach!

    All coaches must be at least 18 years old to be a certified coach.
