Want To Be a Coach?

What is Shooting Star Looking for in a Coach?
Shooting Star is committed to getting good coaching volunteers and to support coaches to become great coaches.  The basic requirements come in two forms.  We want to encourage parent involvement and those with basketball knowledge to be part of Shooting Star.  Our ideal situation is to have someone with basketball knowledge work with a parent volunteer.
