The pathway to becoming a GOTR volunteer coach is unique for everyone. Some coaches are former participants. Some are teachers or parents. And some are community members who are passionate about inspiring the next generation of women. This season, join us as a coach at Stanley County Elementary and watch team members grow in confidence and kindness, and amplify their inner strength. As long as you can commit to a 1.5 hour practice at 3:45pm once a week for 10 weeks and bring a can-do attitude, we’ll provide everything else you need for a successful -- training, tools, and more! Sign up to coach today at www.embe.org/gotr. Season starts March 5, Tuesdays & Thursdays.
