Coach Girls on the Run, Spring 2026

Become a Girls on the Run Coach

Looking for a meaningful way to make an impact without overloading your schedule? Girls on the Run Sierras is seeking volunteer coaches to inspire 3rd–8th grade girls through movement, confidence-building, and connection.

As a coach- alongside experienced GOTR coaches, you’ll help facilitate fun, interactive lessons that help girls build self-esteem, navigate friendships, and discover their inner strength — no running experience required! Coaching is just 90 minutes a week, with flexible scheduling that works around classes, jobs, and internships. We provide all the materials and training you will need!

Why college students love coaching with GOTR:

• Builds volunteer hours and looks great on a resume

• Offers hands-on experience working with youth (perfect for education, psychology, social work, health, or nonprofit career paths)

• Develops leadership, communication, and facilitation skills

• Creates real, lasting impact in your local community

You’ll leave each practice knowing you helped a girl believe in herself — and that’s a feeling that sticks with you long after the season ends.
