Challenger Sports offer both short and long term opportunities for coaches who want to experience living and working in the United States. All prospective staff must complete the on line staff application form.

Summer Camp Coaches...
fly out to the USA in June or July and work for a 5 - 12 week period, returning to the UK in August. Summer camp coaches work on week long camps in a new community each week, arriving each Sunday where they stay with local families and work Monday through Friday before travelling to their new location on the following weekend. Summer Camp coaches typically coach three to six hours each day. The timing of these sessions can be morning and afternoon or morning and evening. Each group of coaches is overseen by an experienced Camp Director. more info

Challenger Club Trainers(CCT's)...
have the opportunity to work for 5 to 9 months in the USA. They have the option to fly out to the US in the spring (February - April) and work until mid October/November. Alternately they can work the summer as a camp coach and then stay out to work as a CCT until Mid October/November. CCT's work primarily in the evenings and weekends with specific clubs and teams and work on developing these teams for a whole season. more info
