Travel Basketball Coach Based in Whitehorse

Location: Whitehorse, YT (In-Person)

Hours: By the trip. Most are two to four days, and you choose which ones you take.

Pay: $20 to $35 an hour plus bonuses, with travel, flights and living expenses covered

We run basketball clinics for communities right across Canada, and we are looking for a coach based in Whitehorse to run the ones near you. You take the trips that suit you, we cover the travel, and you are never on the road on your own.

HoopLife Basketball runs basketball clinics for communities across Canada, and a training centre in Regina. We have delivered 175 community clinics in every province except Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island and in all three territories. A clinic is two to four days in one community, coaching its young people, and most of the communities we visit ask us back.

Where you would go

From Whitehorse you reach the Yukon and the top of BC. We have run clinics for Ross River Dena Council, Liard First Nation at Watson Lake, Little Salmon Carmacks, and Atlin and Dease Lake just over the BC border.

What you would do

• Travel to a community for two to four days and run basketball clinics for its young people.
• Coach alongside one or two other HoopLife coaches. Nobody travels alone.
• Work with the school or the band office on the ground so the days actually run.
• Write a short report when you get home, on your phone, so we know how it went and when they want us back.

Who this suits

• Coaches and former players who want work that is not the same gym every week.
• Anybody who is happy to be away for a few days at a time and wants to choose when.
• People already coaching locally who want to add paid trips around it.

What you get

• $20 to $35 an hour plus bonuses, with flights, mileage, accommodation and living expenses covered.
• You pick the trips. Nothing here is compulsory and there is no minimum.
• A written plan for every clinic, so you are not inventing the days on the drive up.
• Work in communities that ask us back, which is most of them.

Questions people ask

Is travel paid for?

Yes. Flights, mileage, accommodation and living expenses are all covered on top of your hourly rate.

How often would I travel?

As often as you want to. Trips are offered and you take the ones that suit you. Most are two to four days.

What does it pay?

$20 to $35 an hour depending on experience, plus bonuses, with travel costs covered.

Do I need to live in the city itself?

No. Whitehorse is the base we work out from, so anywhere within reasonable reach of it works.

Do I travel on my own?

No. Clinics run with two or more coaches.

Do I need coaching experience?

Yes, some. These are multi-day clinics a long way from home, so we are looking for people who have coached or played at a good level. We give you the plan for every day.

The coaches are outstanding. They are knowledgeable, patient, and truly care about each child's development. They take the time to break down skills, encourage effort, and build confidence in every player... The training sessions are well organized and very effective... You can really see the improvement in skills, teamwork, and overall understanding of the game after just a few sessions... We are extremely happy with our experience and would highly recommend HoopLife Basketball Training to any family looking for a high-quality program where kids can learn, grow, and truly enjoy the game.

We signed up our 8-year-old son for the 3-month membership and have really enjoyed our experience. Logistically, I like that all the sessions are laid out in advance, so you can choose what works best for your schedule. It was a great experience for our son to have different coaches and play with different kids regularly. He really enjoyed the coaches! They were friendly, knowledgeable and really helped him to improve his skills. The facility itself is fantastic, and we're glad we gave this a shot!

…Our son, Keith, not just loves the sport, but he also loves the coaches. We feel very welcome and “at home”, there. They're very friendly to everyone. Also, the skills that they're teaching our son are very helpful for his development. Our son hopes to get accepted in a basketball club while training with HoopLife.
