Job Description
TUMBLING COACH WANTED Know your round-offs from your back handsprings? We should probably talk. n
We are looking for a qualified or highly experienced Tumbling Coach to join our coaching team in Wagga Wagga.

n
We need someone who knows how to
TEACH
them properly.
n
Someone who understands progressions, technique, drills, spotting and - most importantly -
safety
.
n
If you can look at an athlete's tumble and immediately work out what needs fixing, you're exactly the kind of person we want to meet.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING n
You'll work with athletes across different ages and abilities, helping them safely develop strong tumbling foundations and progress to more advanced skills.

Depending on your experience, this may include:
n
n
Tumbling fundamentals and body shapes

Handstands, cartwheels and walkovers

Running and standing tumbling
n
Saltos and more advanced skills

clean technique before big skills
.

No throwing a skill and hoping for the best.
n
That's not how we do things.
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR n
Ideally, you're a qualified tumbling, gymnastics or cheer coach, or you have significant experience coaching tumbling and can demonstrate strong technical knowledge.
n
You need to:
n
n
Understand correct tumbling technique and progressions
n
Be confident and competent spotting skills
n
Put athlete safety first - always

Know when an athlete is ready to progress (and when they're not)

n
Adapt drills for different athletes and learning styles
n
Be patient, encouraging and confident
n




Communicate well with kids and teenagers
n
Be reliable and qualified
n
Work well as part of a coaching team
n
n
And yes...
n
You actually need to turn up.
n
The kids notice when their coach isn't there, and consistency matters to us.
WHO ARE WE? n
We're a growing gym, based in Wagga Wagga.
n
We're passionate about creating strong, confident athletes in an environment where they are challenged, supported and genuinely enjoy coming to training.
n
We have recreational and competitive athletes, with tumbling an important part of their development.
n
We're ambitious about where we are heading, and we want coaches around us who are excited to help build something special.
n
We're serious about technique, safety and athlete development.
n
But we're also a fun workplace.
n
We laugh. We have good banter. We support each other.
n
And we don't want coaching egos.
n
The athletes come first.
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU? n
This is a casual coaching position, with hours and days negotiable depending on your availability and experience.
n
For the right coach, there is plenty of opportunity to grow the role.
n
If you're currently involved in gymnastics, cheer, acro or tumbling and are looking for additional coaching hours, we'd especially love to hear from you.
n
We're also happy to talk confidentially if you're currently coaching elsewhere.
STILL READING? n
Excellent.
n
Skip the generic cover letter telling us you're a "hard-working team player with excellent communication skills."
n
We'd rather know:
n
n
What can you coach?
n
What levels are you comfortable spotting?
n
What experience or qualifications do you have?
n
And why do you love coaching tumbling?
n
n
If you know how to build safe, technically strong and confident tumblers, we want to hear from you.
n
Come join our crew.
