Champion makers wanted. Are you the architect of excellence who transforms potential into performance?
Sports Academy isn't just redefining education—we're revolutionizing it. Our groundbreaking K-8 institution fuses AI-powered academics with elite sports training to develop tomorrow's leaders today. We're the intersection where athletic prowess meets academic brilliance, powered by 2hr Learning's innovative platform.
We don't just teach—we transform. Our cutting-edge adaptive technologies and science-backed motivational frameworks aren't just tools; they're the foundation of a culture where excellence is the standard, not the exception.
Our students aren't guided by teachers—they're mentored by Guides, exceptional leaders who double learning outcomes while uncovering hidden talents and building essential life skills. And these Guides need a visionary leader. That's where you enter the game.
You've been there: breaking records, turning around failing teams, achieving the impossible. How? By blending audacious goal-setting with relentless execution, innovative thinking, and unlocking what drives people from within.
Now imagine channeling that transformative energy into education. Picture yourself as the catalyst who empowers our Guides to reach new heights.
We're seeking an Elite Coach who can develop our Guide team into educational MVPs. Consider joining our roster if:
- You lead with both heart and head—balancing empathy with unwavering standards
- You're known for setting ambitious targets that push teams beyond their perceived limitations
- You could excel as a Guide yourself, but your true calling is elevating others to excellence
- You possess an uncanny ability to connect with any child, motivating them to discover their highest potential
Why Sports Academy stands apart:
- Industry-competitive compensation—because educational impact shouldn't require financial sacrifice
- Premium benefits package and generous PTO—because we value sustainability and well-being
- Continuous growth culture—because even coaches need coaching
- Relocation support for exceptional candidates—because talent shouldn't be limited by geography
Ready to redefine what's possible in education through the power of sports? Join us in creating champions both on and off the field. The future is waiting for your playbook.
What you will be doing
- Elevate Guide Performance: Transform good into extraordinary through personalized coaching, actionable feedback, and performance analytics that directly enhance student achievement and engagement metrics.
- Architect the Guide Playbook: Craft the definitive blueprint for educational excellence—detailing facilitation best practices, designing high-impact learning activities, and developing strategies for overcoming obstacles in the learning journey.
- Ignite Student Potential: Lead a select cohort of learners, applying your specialized expertise in youth development to transform reluctant students into self-motivated achievers who exceed expectations.
What you will NOT be doing
- Micromanaging Curriculum: Your mission transcends daily lesson planning. While Guides facilitate learning through adaptive technology platforms, you'll be orchestrating the bigger picture—training elite facilitators, designing enrichment opportunities that challenge conventional boundaries, and injecting contagious enthusiasm into every learning interaction.
- Compromising Excellence: When our standard is 100%, 99% isn't close enough. You'll be the guardian of uncompromising quality, whether that means maintaining rigorous assessment standards or creating pathways for a middle schooler ready to tackle college-level challenges.
- Delivering Passive Professional Development: Forget death-by-PowerPoint training sessions. Your coaching approach will model the energy, engagement, and facilitation mastery you expect from your team—creating dynamic learning experiences that Guides can't wait to replicate.
Key responsibilities
Cultivate and lead a world-class team of Guides who embody and execute the Sports Academy methodology with unparalleled excellence, consistently raising the bar for what's possible in educational outcomes.
Candidate requirements
- Bachelor's degree in any discipline (educational background less important than demonstrated leadership excellence)
- Proven track record of elevating teams to elite performance levels through strategic mentorship and development
- Evidence-based decision-making approach with demonstrable results from data analysis
- Established history of meaningful engagement with youth (ages 5-18) that produced measurable growth and achievement outcomes
- Authorization to work in the United States without requiring visa sponsorship
- Commitment to working on-site at our Austin, Texas campus
