East Ridge Parks and Rec are always welcoming volunteer coaches. We look for passionate people, know the game, respect the game, and willing to give back to the kids. It starts with you in order to have a successful season. We will provide all the equipment and you get to pick what team you want to be! We even use this app called Mojo Sports and it has all the tools you need to be a successful coach.

You are responsible for communicating with parents about practices and games. Practice once a week and play on Friday Nights. Flag Football is about being creative and having fun. 

We need coaches in grades K/2, 3/4, and 5/6.
