A job where the work actually feels like fun.
LaxKids is a high-energy lacrosse program built for children ages 3 to 7. We are looking for energetic, dependable, positive people who genuinely enjoy working with young children — and we will teach you the rest.
Three questions.
If you answer yes to these, you are already most of the way to being a LaxKids coach.
Do you love working with children, being active, and making a difference in your community?
Are you passionate about sports, education, and helping young children build confidence?
Are you looking for a job where work actually feels like fun?
More than teaching a game.
Introducing a child to sport should be about more than learning how to play. We are building confidence, developing coordination, encouraging teamwork, and helping young athletes discover a love of being active.
Through imaginative games, creative activities, and age-appropriate instruction, we create a place where children learn, grow, and above all have fun.
You don’t need to be a lacrosse expert to be an amazing LaxKids coach.
The reason they leave smiling.
Our coaches are the heart of LaxKids — enthusiastic leaders and positive role models, and the reason our little athletes leave every session grinning.
A LaxKids coach does more than teach lacrosse. You help children build confidence, celebrate what they just managed for the first time, make friends, and find out what they are capable of.
You bring the energy. We bring everything else.
Training & support
Hands-on training so you feel confident and prepared from your first session. You learn our teaching approach, age-appropriate coaching technique, and how to make it exciting for every child.
A curriculum that is actually fun
Forget boring drills. Structured lesson plans built from imaginative games and creative activities, so you can focus on bringing the energy rather than inventing the session.
All equipment provided
Sticks, balls, goals, cones and the game materials that make a session memorable. You never buy a thing or haul your own gear.
Flexible opportunities
College student, teacher, coach, or simply someone who loves working with children — there is a way to fit LaxKids around what you already do.
Room to grow
We are expanding into new communities and building a team of people who want to grow with us. Creativity, initiative and your feedback all count here.
Attitude first. Everything else is teachable.

Previous coaching, teaching, childcare or sports experience is a plus — but a great attitude and a genuine passion for working with children are what matter most.
First experiences last a long time.
The first experience a child has with sport can shape how they feel about being active for years afterwards. We want every child to leave a session feeling confident, successful and excited to come back.
We want our coaches to feel exactly the same way.
