Previous collegiate coaching experience is preferred but not required. Candidates with strong coaching experience, community connections, and demonstrated recruiting potential are encouraged to apply.

Recruiting and Program Development

Recruiting is an important component of this opportunity. Candidates should be prepared to explain their recruiting network, outreach strategy, and ability to build a competitive roster.

For applicants proposing a new sport, the ability to identify and recruit at least 20 prospective student-athletes will be a key consideration in determining whether the university moves forward with establishing the program.

Compensation and Employment

Compensation, coaching assignments, work schedules, and employment arrangements will be discussed with qualified candidates based on experience, responsibilities, recruiting potential, and the needs of the athletics program.

Interested candidates should submit a resume and a brief introduction outlining:

• The sport they are interested in coaching.
• Their coaching and playing experience.
• Their recruiting network and estimated number of prospective student-athletes they can bring to the program.
