Rugby Coach Volunteer

Description

Do you enjoy rugby? Would you like to help others to find their love of the sport? If so, this could be the role for you.

Kirkcaldy Rugby Club is looking for rugby coach volunteers to assist with their classes and training sessions during the week and on weekends. There are multiple sessions throughout the week, and you can choose when you'd like to come along and help out.

Volunteers are needed to set up for the sessions, assist the coach with running activities and supervise games, making sure the players follow the rules and play safely. Reliable and enthusiastic volunteer coaches can progress on to complete their coaching qualifications. No experience of coaching needed, as training will be provided.
