Coaches Volunteer Requirements
Head Coach = All Volunteer Shifts for Season are covered
Assistant Coach = 2 Volunteer Shifts
1 Evaluation shift is mandatory
In addition to the above, BAHA requires that all coaching applicants participate in the evaluation process in order to successfully place our 600+ players into 41 teams. All hours/shifts worked during evaluations will count towards your volunteer commitments for the season. Coaching volunteer shifts, during evaluations will be considered part of your coaching application.
Should you not be chosen as HC or AC on a BAHA team, any shifts worked during the evaluation process will be used against your 2021/2022 volunteer commitments.
**Coaches CANNOT sign up for shifts that include their child's/children's age level**
**Shifts will NOT be guaranteed: We ask that you sign up for 2-3 shifts and you will be contacted by your level director, where they will let you know which shift/s you have been assigned.**
Coaches Volunteer Shifts can be found under the Volunteer Sign Up Tab. They will be labeled Coach ONLY
