Job Description:
NYCFC invites experienced or new youth soccer coaches to deliver training through camps, clinics, club teams, and leagues. You’ll implement the club’s curriculum, foster player development across age groups, and collaborate within the City Football Group network for coaching education and growth.
I’m in Queens and I’d consider it if it’s $25–$35/hr and they cluster sessions in one area; bouncing between NYC, LI, and CT on a part-time schedule is a dealbreaker. Coaching under the NYCFC badge is legit experience, though.
I’d only take it if the pay actually covers the travel between NYC/LI/Westchester/CT because that commute will chew up time and gas. NYCFC on the resume is solid and their curricula are usually good, but part-time youth gigs are mostly evenings/weekends with inconsistent hours.
Did a similar setup last fall; I only made it work by getting them to guarantee 2–3 back-to-back sessions at one site and a mileage/toll stipend — otherwise the $35/hr evaporated. Ask for a fixed region per day (like Queens Tue/Thu, Westchester Sat) so you’re not ping-ponging.
