Interested in Coaching?

We are currently accepting volunteer coaches for 3rd/4th grade basketball and 5th6th grade basketball. To get started, simply register as a coach. Once registered, you’ll be directed to complete an online background check, which is required annually for all volunteers. Upon the completion of the season and the return of any issued gear (if applicable), coaches will receive a credit equal to the cost of the season as a thank-you for their time and dedication.

3/4th & 5/6th Basketball Coaching Registration

We require all volunteer coaches to complete the free NAYS Concussion Training, available on the NAYS website. To access the training, simply log in, add the concussion course to your cart, and proceed to check out—there will be no charge. This training must be completed annually. Once you have finished, please send a PDF copy of your certificate to your sport's recreation coordinator.

SB24-113: Safer Youth Sports Act

Starting July 1, 2025, there are new requirements designed to ensure the safety of youth sports, and as coaches, it’s important to understand what this means for you. Each year, you will be required to complete mandatory reporter training to help you recognize and report signs of child abuse or neglect. Additionally, you will be encouraged to complete abuse prevention training, which will cover prohibited conduct, appropriate one-on-one interactions with players, how to recognize and prevent inappropriate behavior, and how to respond to disclosures of abuse in compliance with Colorado’s reporting laws. 

All coaches will be expected to follow a prohibited conduct policy, which outlines unacceptable behaviors for coaches, parents, spectators, and athletes, as well as a code of conduct that promotes a safe and respectful environment for everyone. These measures are designed to create a positive and safe experience for all participants, and your commitment to upholding these standards is greatly appreciated.
