FIT Kids Dodgeball Coaches
FIT Kids Dodgeball is more than a sports league—it’s an opportunity to use dodgeball to encourage kids, coach them well, and point them to Jesus. Our goal is to create a fun, competitive, welcoming environment where every 1st–5th grader belongs, improves, builds friendships, and learns to put their Faith in Action.

Our Coaching Culture
KNOW THEM. ENCOURAGE THEM. COACH THEM. POINT THEM TO JESUS.
You don't need to be a dodgeball expert! We'll provide the training, rules, drills, weekly devotionals, and resources you need. We're looking for coaches who will be dependable, encouraging, Christlike, and excited to invest in kids.
Our season theme is FOLLOW: “Want to lead? Learn to FOLLOW.” Winning is fun, but our greatest win is seeing kids know they are valued, grow in character and confidence, and learn what it looks like to follow Jesus on the court and everywhere else.
**A Coach Playbook will be provided with best practices, league foundations, every weekly devotional (simple user friendly guide), and sample: warmups, drills, and skills detailed to make leading practice simple.
