Careers in Human Development

Job Title: Volleyball Coach for Military Camps – NOT A WORK FROM HOME These camps take place on military installations worldwide.MVP360 Sports is expanding our youth development programs with dynamic volleyball camps and clinics designed specifically for military children and families.Military families face unique and ongoing challenges that can significantly affect children’s well-being. Frequent relocations — often every 2–3 years — disrupt schooling, force children to repeatedly leave behind friends and support networks, and create anxiety around adapting to new environments. Parental deployments bring prolonged separations (typically 6–12 months or more), leading to emotional strain, worry about a parent’s safety, changes in family roles and routines, and increased risks of anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, sleep problems, and academic difficulties. Reintegration after deployment can also be challenging as families readjust to changed dynamics. These stressors are compounded by limited consistent access to enriching activities on base, especially during times of transition.As a Volleyball Coach, you will play a key role in delivering fun, high-energy camps that teach core volleyball skills — serving, passing, setting, hitting, blocking, defense, and team strategies — while building fitness, confidence, teamwork, resilience, and essential life skills in a supportive environment. Our on-base programs help military youth develop positive coping mechanisms, form new friendships, stay physically active, and gain a sense of stability and belonging amid these challenges.Key Responsibilities:Lead multi-day volleyball camps and clinics (typically 4–5 days, 3 hours per session) on military basesProvide skill instruction and positive mentorship to youth of all ages and skill levelsCreate engaging, inclusive experiences that support military families facing deployments and relocationsWhat We’re Looking For:Demonstrated experience coaching volleyball (youth level preferred)Genuine passion for working with children from diverse backgroundsFlexibility and willingness to travel (we cover all travel, accommodations, and equipment)High energy, patience, and strong communication skillsAbility to pass all required background checks, including military clearancesValid driver’s license and clean driving/criminal recordThis is a deeply rewarding opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of military kids while joining our growing network of 150+ coaches and mentors.If you’re enthusiastic about youth development and want to bring the spirit and power of volleyball to military families, we want to hear from you!Go MVP360!
