"A coach will impact more people in one year than the average person will in an entire lifetime" - Billy Graham

We encourage you to apply to coach as this is a community league supported by volunteers.

Apply to coach during online player registration or apply using this link if you have already registered.
We will equip coaches with tools through myupward.org to: 
  • Communicate easily
  • Be organized and detailed for practice and games so that you can help improve skills.
  • Help participants discover more about their life's purpose through weekly devotions. This season we will study Joshua and learn what it looks like to courageously follow a faithful God.​
These tools will include a coach playbook with detailed practice plan for each practice, a devotion for each week, online resources, skills and drills videos, communication tools, game day team management, team uniforms, and coach shirt.
We take care of the referee fees so that you don't have to.
  • Referees for K-2nd grades are trained volunteers
  • Referees for 3rd grade and up are state licensed OHSAA officials
  • The Circle of Affirmation ensures that coaches interact with officials in a way that has officials requesting to officiate in our league.
League coordinators are on site to work with officials, coaches, and parents to ensure a great gameday atmosphere.
Preseason coach meeting - Saturday, November 18th, 2023 at 8:30 - 9:45 am.
