Youth Basketball at the YMCA of Port Angeles

Ready. Set. Coach
Children who play sports at the YMCA discover so much more than their athletic abilities. They build character, develop self-confidence, create healthy relationships—and you can have a role in this transformation.
When you volunteer as a coach or referee, you’re helping others, meeting new people, keeping your mind and body healthy and learning new skills—and all of this feels great.
Doing something you love, while making a difference!
Whether you love the sport, working with kids, coaching, or giving back—you can enjoy your passion in a family environment, while using your life experience to make a difference in the lives of kids.
