Coaches

The In-house Rec League is dependent on parent-volunteer coaches.  Without volunteers to coach the teams, this league would not be able to exist.  Please consider coaching your child’s team.  No experience is necessary; all coaches are provided with drills and activities to run with their teams during practice.  BIFC staff members are on-site at all times to help coaches who need assistance.

If you would like to volunteer to coach your child’s team, please reach out to Director of Rec Soccer, Zach Conner (zachc@bifc.net).
