Coaching Information & Requirements

Coaches are key to running our organization! BDHA is always looking for volunteers to provide a positive and rewarding experience for our young athletes.

When you volunteer as a coach, you'll have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of our youth. You'll provide them with the guidance, support, and encouragement they need to develop their skills, build their confidence, and learn important life lessons that will serve them well on and off the ice.

Not only is coaching incredibly rewarding, but it's also a lot of fun! You'll get to work with a great group of kids, meet other passionate volunteers, and be part of a thriving community dedicated to promoting youth sports.

So if you're looking for a way to give back and make a positive impact, we encourage you to sign up as a coaching volunteer today. Your time and dedication will help shape the future of our young athletes and make a lasting impact on their lives.
