Volunteer Coaches
Give your time to a youth soccer, baseball, or basketball team.

What is a Volunteer Coach?
Volunteer Coaches are those who wish to volunteer their time helping coach the youth of Peoria in a variety of sports. The time commitment depends on the specific sport, but usually consists of one or two nights during the week and Saturdays for 1-2 hours. No previous experience is needed but having some background in the specific sport will certainly help. We will prepare and provide all coaches with the needed information to effectively teach and coach.

What Can I Do as a Volunteer Coach?
Volunteer coaches are needed each year for the following sports:

  • Soccer (April-May)

  • Youth Baseball (June-July)

  • Basketball (Nov-February) 

How Can I Start?
Please complete the Volunteer Coach’s Application and submit it to:

Athletic Department
Peoria Park District
2218 N. Prospect Road
Peoria, IL 61603

FAX: (309) 686-3384 

The application is designed to obtain as much information as possible about an applicant in order to effectively place the volunteer in an assignment that best suits the volunteer’s skill level and interest. All applicants are subject to a background check and must pass before coaching.
