ATHLETIC COACHES (tennis, basketball, flag football, and soccer)

• The ACs are expected to arrive at the facility no later than 15 minutes before the session start time and stay until the program concludes.
• The ACs will make sure the program runs on schedule and that a break for refreshments and the daily devotional occurs at the midpoint of each session and that athletic training resumes promptly after the half-hour break.
• The ACs will take attendance at each session.
• ​The ACs will wear a name tag and the SportsWorks uniform at each session.
• ​Each AC is responsible for raising his or her own support money to cover his/her salary.  Any money that is raised above the established amount will be divided 50/50 between the AC and SportsWorks.  Checks from financial supporters must be made payable to King of the Court Tennis Ministry Inc.  A tax­-deductible receipt will then be issued to each donor.
