Assistant Men’s Artistic Gymnastics (MAG) Coach
If you have a passion for making a difference in the lives of kids through sport, join the
coaching team at Delta Gymnastics, where we just don’t build athletes; we build people!
We’re a supportive, tight-knit team that works together to bring out the best in each child –
and each other, with on-going coach development and mentoring. Enthusiastic,
hardworking and dedicated, we also love to have lots of laughs!
Our coaches are the professionals who are key in developing and maintaining the high
quality of the developmental, community, outreach and advanced programs we offer at our
20,000 sq ft, state-of-the-art facility and in our neighbouring community.
We believe our club culture is one of the reasons we’re one of Canada’s top gymnastics
clubs.
We have an immediate opening for one full-time, Assistant Gymnastics Coach for our MAG
competitive team to prepare and train individual athletes and teams for competitive events.
Our goal is to further develop our competitiveness at local, provincial, national and
international levels by engaging a technical expert in contemporary gymnastics to assist in
the development of our athletes and coaches – from beginner to elite levels.
We require an individual with recent international experience competing or coaching to top
finishes at a World Cup level. In an effort to fill gaps in past Canadian efforts at elite levels,
we are looking for a candidate with specific experience in Still Rings and/or Pommel Horse.
This position is a fit for you if you:
• Have successful international competitive gymnast experience, and at least one-year
assistant coaching experience.
• Are ranked as a National Champion.
• Have excellent recent World Cup results.
• Have the ability to motivate other athletes academically and athletically.
• Have post-secondary education in Physical Education or Kinesiology.
• Proven experience in, and technical knowledge of, the sport.
Position Responsibilities:
• Act as a positive role model, lead by example, demonstrate “best practices” for athletes,
and provide motivation to all gymnasts.
• Inform students about, and enforce the rules and regulations for each class.
