Athletics can provide physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual growth and it is our desire that Lighthouse athletics will facilitate growth in each of these areas through our knowledgeable coaches, commissioners, and volunteers.
“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another” (Proverbs 27:17)
Need for Coaches & Assistants
As we grow, the need for coaches also grows. We do need coaches with knowledge of the sport, but could use assistants that don’t necessarily know the sport. Assistant coaches can help with organizational details, bookwork, organizing kids and keeping them focused on the drills or workout. We can also teach you the game, if you would like to be a head coach. All coaches are asked to participate in a background check and also a short questionnaire.
Email us at sports@lighthousehsa.com for all your questions and to register your child for a sport.
