Coaches needed for USN's Girls On The Run team
USN is looking for volunteers to help coach the school's Girls On The Run team this year. Coaches do not need to be runners but should have a passion for mentoring and a commitment to creating a positive and inclusive environment.
By Rebecca Stokes, Director of Auxiliary Programs
Girls on the Run is a nonprofit organization that empowers girls in grades 3-5 through a unique program that combines physical activity with life skills lessons. The program aims to enhance girls' social, emotional, and physical well-being, fostering a sense of confidence, self-respect, and community.
Coaching for Girls on the Run involves guiding a group of girls through a 10-week curriculum, including lessons on positive self-image, healthy relationships, and goal setting, all while training for a celebratory 5K run.
Coaches must complete National Coach training, which includes both online and in-person sessions. USN's Girls On The Run team practices most Mondays and Fridays from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. on the Back Field. Coaches do not need to be runners but should have a passion for mentoring and a commitment to creating a positive and inclusive environment.
