Inspire Young Athletes as an School Sports & Games Instructor!

Are you passionate about sports, fitness, and inspiring the next generation?

Love sports (especially soccer) and love working with kids? At Active Education, we believe play is powerful. Our instructors use sports, games, and active play — soccer, basketball, flag football, dodgeball, tag games and more — to help students build teamwork, confidence, and communication, and have a blast doing it.

We're hiring energetic, reliable coaches for steady, year-round hours across our Inland Empire school programs. If you want consistent work you can build a routine around — not one-off gigs — this is it.

Schedule & Hours

Core programs — our priority, steady weekly hours:

Rialto — in-school morning programs, up to 4 mornings/week, approx. 10:30 AM-1 PM (~2.25 hrs each)

Redlands — Monday afternoons 1–3:45 PM (~2.75 hrs)

Fontana — Tuesday to Friday afternoons, approx. 2:30–5:15 PM (~2.75 hrs/day)

Altogether, you can reach ~20–24 hours/week — great if you want to build toward a fuller part-time role.

(Note: Rialto runs mornings and Redlands/Fontana runs afternoons, so on those days you'd work a morning + afternoon schedule.)

Actual hours depend on your availability and program needs. A valid driver's license and reliable transportation are essential — our sites span Rialto, Redlands, and Fontana.

What You’ll Do

You'll lead structured activities, games, and sports that keep kids moving and having fun — from soccer, basketball, and flag football to dodgeball, tag, relays, and all kinds of multi-sport games. Following a set curriculum, you'll keep every student active and engaged and be a positive presence that school staff can count on.

Lead your own group of up to 20 students, running the full session from start to finish
Organize and lead games and activities
Teach kids how to play and keep them moving
Encourage teamwork, social-emotional learning, and positive behavior
Help resolve conflicts calmly and fairly
Communicate and liaise with school staff
Follow the Active Education curriculum

What We’re Looking For

You'll thrive here if you're enthusiastic, reliable, punctual, and genuinely great with kids. We'd love to see:

Confident and capable of running a group on your own — you can take charge and lead a session, not just assist
Coaching background in soccer and/or basketball and/or athletics
Experience working with children, ideally in after-school or school settings
A background in playing sports and an active lifestyle
A clear communicator and team player who shows up positive and professional
