• Monitor participation levels and adapt programming to meet member demand.
• Organize and run club tournaments, special events, and social competitions.
• Provide high-quality instruction, coaching, and clinics to members.
• Manage court scheduling, programming calendars, and event logistics.
• Coordinate program registration and communicate schedules and updates to members.
• Track program participation and evaluate the success of programming initiatives.
• Work collaboratively with club management and other departments.
• Offer private, semi-private and group lessons.
• Foster a welcoming and inclusive pickleball culture within the club.
• Engage with members to encourage participation, build community, and support skill development.
• Provide leadership, mentorship, and scheduling support for pickleball staff.
• Contribute to creating a positive and professional team environment.
• Other duties as assigned.

WHAT YOU NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL:

• Strong playing background in pickleball with demonstrated knowledge of the game.
• Experience coaching or instructing pickleball in a club or recreational setting.
• TPA (Teaching Professional Association) certification is considered a strong asset.
• Experience working in private or members-only clubs
• Tournament or league management experience
• Standard First Aid and CPR-C certification (required).
• Experience developing and managing sports programming or leagues.
• Strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills.
• Engaging, energetic personality with strong member service skills.
• Flexibility to work early mornings, evenings, weekends, and occasional holidays.
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team.
• Previous supervisory or managerial experience is an asset.
