Lead Site Coach / Head Age Group Coach

YMCA of the North Shore SHARKS Swim Team

Lead. Inspire. Develop the Next Generation of Competitive Swimmers.

Are you an experienced swim coach who is passionate about athlete development and building a positive team culture? The YMCA of the North Shore SHARKS is seeking a dynamic Lead Site Coach / Head Age Group Coach to provide leadership for one of our training sites while guiding the developmental pathway for swimmers ages 6–12 across our entire competitive swim program.

The YMCA of the North Shore SHARKS is a YMCA and USA Swimming competitive swim team serving more than 250 age group swimmers and over 100 Masters swimmers across multiple North Shore training locations.

In this leadership role, you'll work closely with the Head Coach to shape the future of our age group program by developing curriculum, mentoring coaches, leading daily training sessions, and creating an environment where young athletes thrive both in and out of the pool. If you're passionate about developing swimmers, building relationships, and fostering a lifelong love of the sport, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Do

Athlete Development & Program Leadership

Develop and implement the technical training curriculum and long-term athlete development pathway for swimmers ages 6–12 across all SHARKS training sites.
Design engaging, progressive practices that develop strong stroke technique, racing skills, confidence, and sportsmanship.
Foster a positive, inclusive team culture focused on personal growth, belonging, and athletic achievement.

Site Leadership

Serve as the primary on-deck coach for the competitive age group program at your designated training site.
Oversee daily practice operations, scheduling, safety, and overall program quality.
Ensure a fun, organized, and supportive environment where athletes can reach their full potential.

Coaching & Staff Development

Recruit, mentor, supervise, and develop assistant age group coaches.
Provide ongoing coaching, feedback, and training to ensure consistent instructional quality and curriculum implementation.
Promote collaboration and professional growth among coaching staff.

Team Operations & Competition

Coordinate swim meets, season planning, meet registrations, and competitive opportunities for swimmers ages 6–12.
Monitor athlete progress using performance data and coaching technology, including TeamUnify, SwimCloud, and the USA Swimming Data Hub.
Support efficient pool scheduling, equipment management, and overall team operations.

Family & Community Engagement

Build strong relationships with swimmers, parents, volunteers, and community partners.
Communicate effectively regarding athlete development, practice expectations, competitions, and team events.
Partner with volunteer leadership to support successful swim meets, fundraising initiatives, and team social events.

Safety & Professional Excellence

Maintain all required YMCA and USA Swimming certifications.
Ensure all practices and competitions follow YMCA, USA Swimming, and safety guidelines.
Stay current with emerging coaching techniques, athlete development strategies, and industry best practices.

Why You'll Love Working at the YMCA of the North Shore

At the YMCA, you'll do more than coach swimming—you'll help young athletes build confidence, resilience, discipline, and lifelong skills that extend far beyond the pool.

YMCA Employee Benefits

Free YMCA membership
Employee discounts on YMCA programs and services
Health and dental insurance for eligible full-time employees
Generous paid time off
Tuition reimbursement
12% employer-funded retirement contribution (no employee match required)
Employer-paid life insurance
