Youth Sports Performance Coach, Gray Wolf Performance (Lenexa, KS) There's an old story about two wolves. One is calm and represents kindness, patience, empathy. The other is fierce and embodies grit, drive, the will to push through hard things. Most people pick a side. We built a gym for the people who'd rather feed both. We're looking for a coach who can connect, progress, and support athletes while creating strong relationships. Fierce and unrelenting about the standard; calm and supportive with the athlete in front of you.

A little about us:

We're a mental health facility disguised as a gym. Our youth athletes train in four levels, and we place them by ability, not age. Athletic Foundations is mostly elementary kids learning to move well and learning how to train.

Athletic Development is middle school:

strength, speed mechanics and building the habit. Athletic Performance is high school athletes getting stronger, faster and more powerful for their sport. Elite Performance is for competitive high school and college athletes, with individualized programming and more advanced testing. Every athlete tests four times a year, including VALD performance testing, so you'll actually see what your coaching is doing, and their parents get the progress at home. Day to day, you'll coach youth classes in your levels, help run testing days, and use the numbers to move athletes up when they're ready. We also built our own coaching app, so the session you write shows up on the athlete's phone. If you want to build a one-on-one or small-group book on top of that, there's room for it. You'll do well here if you own your athletes' progress and your own growth, and if you're willing to be uncomfortable for something you want (it's what we ask the kids to do). You should know how to coach speed, strength and power, and how to scale all of it for a body that's still growing. Growth as a coach is non-negotiable and we support our staff with continuing education.

Our owners put it simply:

the standard is the standard. Pay is per class, plus a share of what your one-on-one and small-group athletes pay. Part-time or full-time both work. We're open Monday to Thursday 5 AM to 7 PM, Friday 5 AM to 4 PM and Saturday 6:30 to 10 AM, and your hours follow your athletes and the class schedule. If this sounds like you, send us a short note about who you are and which athletes you've coached, with your certifications and a couple of references. If it's a fit, we'll have you out to the facility to meet the whole team and go from there. Gray Wolf Performance 8180 Cole Pkwy, Lenexa, KS 66227 graywolfperformance.com
