File Review:

Applications will be reviewed upon receipt. Position open until filled. Help Students Find Their Game Golf has a way of keeping people humble. One shot lands exactly where it was intended, and the next disappears into a place where no reasonable person would think to look. For student-athletes, those moments offer lessons in patience, decision-making, and how to move forward after a difficult shot. As the Lakeside High School Head Golf Coach, you will work with students who may arrive with years of experience and others who are still learning which club to use, and why yelling "fore" should happen before everyone starts ducking. Effective instruction is paramount, and so is creating a team where students feel welcome, supported, and comfortable learning from mistakes. Progress will look different for every golfer, and sometimes success really is getting through a round with the same number of golf balls you started with. We are looking for a coach who knows the game, values positive relationships, and understands that success is not measured by a scorecard alone. The right person will help students develop confidence, patience, personal responsibility, and respect for themselves, their teammates, their competitors, and the course. If you can teach the fundamentals, keep students steady after a rough hole, and appreciate a sport where the smallest score earns the biggest celebration, we would love to hear from you.
