Welcome to Soccer Shots Coach Video


On November 2, 2022, a new video was added to the “Introduction to Soccer Shots” section of the coaches training in our E-Learning platform. 

The video features CEO, Justin Bredeman speaking directly to coaches, introduces them to our franchise community and shares the unique impact of the Soccer Shots Coaching role. Included in the video is an encouragement to coaches to leverage their personal networks to grow the Soccer Shots community both in coaching roles and other professional opportunities. 

We’ve included the link to the CareerPlug page for all Soccer Shots job postings, www.soccershotscareers.careerplug.com/jobs in the video – This is a great resource to identify what job opportunities are available at Soccer Shots locations throughout North America. Our hope is to encourage coaches to refer friends and family to Soccer Shots, whether they’re local or in different cities or states. 

In addition to the video, here are some ways you can help strengthen the franchise community through your efforts: 

  • If a coach resigns due to relocation and/or are looking for full-time work non-locally, consider asking them if they’d like to work for another Soccer Shots location in the area they’re moving to. The aggregate Careers Page is a great way to identify if there are open coaching & full-time positions in their area.

  • Have your coaches share this link with their non-local friends/family.

  • Share this link on your social media pages to encourage your followers to levy their networks.
