Female Basketball Coaches Wanted — Girls Ages 5–15 | EcoHoops

The Mission — We are building a safe, fun, and empowering space for girls in Mississauga to fall in love with basketball, from Jr. NBA/Jr. WNBA (ages 5–6) up to our U15 Girls rep team.

Youth sports are often too toxic, male-dominated, and obsessed with elite status. We are throwing all of that out. As a dad with a daughter in the game, I am building EcoHoops so girls have a gym where they truly belong. To do this right, these girls need to see women like you leading the way.

We coach using a sports science method called Ecological Dynamics. Think of it like learning to ride a bike — you do not read a manual, you hop on, wobble a bit, and find your balance naturally. We teach basketball the exact same way.

Who We Need — Women 19+ ready to be a big sister to the next generation. Never coached before? That is a huge plus. You only need to know the basic rules and love working with kids. University students, future teachers, former players looking to give back.

Two ways to help:
• Jr. Girls Coaches: fun sessions for girls ages 5–10, we train you
• Rep Team Coaches: support our U15 Girls rep team weeknights

What You Get — Official sign-offs for your practicum hours. Glowing reference letters for Teachers College or Grad School. Learn evidence-based modern coaching techniques. Be part of a bold movement to change youth sports. Build your resume while making a real difference.
