coach at Istrouma Sports!

Istrouma Sports is dependent on volunteer coaches. The number of teams in each division is determined by the number of coaches signed up to volunteer.
We equip our coaches so they feel prepared and comfortable in this environment. Please don’t hesitate to coach if you have never done so before or have little experience with the sport.
Our volunteers will go through a vetting process and will be expected to meet the coaches’ requirements throughout the season.
Indicate on your child’s registration and submit an application below if you are interested in volunteering as a head coach, assistant coach, or bench monitor this season. Sign up as a head coach on registration to save some money!

COACHES APPLICATION

• Softball is for girls 5-13 years old.
• Divisions are based on age by January 1, 2023.
• Our youth sports leagues provide kids with equal playing time and the chance to play every position at a younger age.
• Our leagues are welcoming to players of all skill levels. Inexperienced players will be comfortable and have plenty of opportunities to learn in a recreational environment. Experienced players will be challenged and continue to grow.
• Teams are intended to be created as fair and competitive as possible, once evaluations are completed.
• Teams will have a community gathering after each game, which includes an awards ceremony and a devotion.
• Players will learn a redemptive quality and memory verse each week.
• Parents can list either a practice conflict or friend request. We will not be able to fulfill both requests.
• Players can request to play with one friend if this is a mutual request and if they are in the same division.
• Late registrants, after February 19, will be unable to request friends as teammates.
• We try our best to place siblings on the same practice night.
• We are hopeful to have multiple teams in each division. Girls could play in a developmental division if there aren’t enough players or coaches to form a competitive division.
• All age divisions have a limited capacity.
