Revolutionary Sports is looking for enthusiastic, patient and articulate coaches who want to make learning sports educational and fun !

Revolutionary Sports (RevSports), established in 2001, is the Twin Cities leader in teaching kids how to play a sport. Hundreds of coaches lead classes, camps, leagues and small group training sessions. The RevSports approach is to teach age-appropriate technical and tactical aspects of the sport through instructional warm-ups, fun game-like activities and always end playing a small-sided game. RevSports is rapidly growing and seeking more coaches who want to make an immediate, positive impact on children, ages 2-8.

Curriculum is critical in the success of a player. Instructors learn to teach RevSports’ proprietary approach to teaching age-appropriate skills in a positive and fun environment. RevSports instructors lead classes in one (or two) seasonal sports. Classes are taught seven days a week, but most sessions meet weekdays between 4:30-8:00 PM. Sessions run one day per week, for a total of four weeks. Sessions run back-to-back, year-round.

When participants enjoy and learn from an instructor, they continue to sign up and follow that instructor. We are looking for more great instructors who are looking to build relationships that encourage players to grow in their interest in sports.
