Join us as a Coach at Camp Abilities Four Corners!
We are so glad you are interested in helping us at Camp Abilities Four Corners! We are looking for the following qualities in a performance coach:
1. Coaches may be asked to read/study the Self Advocacy Playbook and watch various other videos from www.campabilitiesworld.com before camp begins. Coaches may also be asked to attend one or more virtual meetings or trainings before camp begins.
2. Coaches are responsible for reading and understanding their assigned student(s) application including any health conditions, needs or behaviors that could influence their safety or camp experience.
3. Coaches are ultimately responsible for the safety of their athlete(s) and therefore should be in close vicinity of them during all waking hours. Substitute coaches will be available when someone needs a rest or restroom break. Coaches sleep in their own room, not with athletes.
4. Coaches are expected to be a positive role model for all campers. Coaches are their athlete's "cheerleader" providing positive feedback.
5. Coaches are expected to encourage their athlete(s) and provide help in acquiring and improving skills. Coaches listen with their athletes to the Instructor's directions and should encourage their athlete(s) to ask questions when they need more help.
6. Coaches will need to measure baseline levels of targeted skills and measure/take data during and at the end of camp. End of camp information should be written to share with the family and the Assistant Camp Director. Forms for all of this will be provided.
7. The night before the end of camp, coaches will be asked to create an award for their athlete(s). Materials will be provided and it usually becomes a group activity.
8. Coaches may be asked to fill out an electronic questionnaire after camp is over, giving feedback regarding what went well and what could be improved upon with suggestions included.
9. When camp is over, coaches will receive payment.
