About the Role:
The demand for private Pickleball lessons in Northeast Florida is exploding, and Golden Racket Academy is expanding our local roster to keep up. We are looking for a highly motivated coach to take on new clients across the area, coaching everywhere from the active courts at Jarboe Park to client-preferred private and HOA courts across Nocatee, Jacksonville Beach, and the Southside. If you want a full schedule without the headache of marketing yourself, we need to talk.
We serve premium clients who expect excellent coaching, clear communication, and a consistent experience. You bring the coaching expertise to the court; we handle the operations, marketing, client acquisition, and billing.
Why Coach With Us?
- Excellent Earnings: Up to $55/hr, based on experience and coaching level.
- We Bring the Clients: We actively market in the greater Jacksonville area and have an active roster of clients waiting.
- Guaranteed Payouts: No chasing down Venmo payments or dealing with flaky cancellations. We handle the billing.
- Ultimate Flexibility: This is an independent contractor (1099) role. You set your schedule based on your availability and client demand.
What You'll Do:
- Coach private and small-group pickleball lessons for mixed ages and skill levels.
- Provide individualized feedback on technique, movement, and strategy.
- Create simple, effective lesson plans tailored to each student's specific goals.
- Communicate promptly and professionally with clients regarding lesson logistics.
What We Are Looking For:
- 1+ years of coaching experience (pickleball or tennis coaching welcome).
- Professionalism, punctuality, and the ability to work independently.
- Reliable transportation to travel to local courts.
