Pro Skills Basketball is looking for the “Navy Seals” of youth basketball.
Please excuse the military comparison, but we are looking for the best of the best youth basketball leaders to become our next City Directors in all major US cities (minus the ones we’re already in).
We are looking for women and men of high character and grit who see the problems in youth basketball and want to join an elite team focused on a singular mission: to change the culture of youth basketball.
And like the Seals, this job is not easy, glamorous, or often fun. In fact, it’s really hard and very few have the desire, passion, and fortitude to make it work, but for those that do, it is often the most rewarding and fulfilling job of their career.
Pro Skills Basketball City Directors all:
- Have a strong knowledge of basketball with a passion for teaching, coaching, and mentoring
- Are initially willing to commit a lot of time and effort outside of their full-time job and family to building PSB to one day being big enough to support a full-time City Director position
- Work well with a team and are reliable, organized, and communicative. Our leaders can follow instructions to a T, are rarely late or absent, and communicate in a clear and timely manner with all stakeholders
- Are constantly looking to improve and grow themselves and their PSB city
- Confidently and professionally manage and control all on-court and business operations of PSB in that city
- Always ensure the physical and psychological safety of all participants
- Understand they are the face of Pro Skills Basketball in that city and project values that align with PSB
- Genuinely care for children’s development
- Provide and foster a positive and professional coaching environment for players, parents, and staff
The responsibilities of a City Director are many, and include but are not limited to:
- Hiring, managing, and retaining the highest quality of coaches
- Performing quality checks according to PSB guidelines
- Providing feedback to coaches according to PSB guidelines
- Organizing, arranging and communicating practice, workout, and game schedules for all teams
- Having schedules in place according to PSB guidelines
- Communicating with coaches, managers, and parents according to PSB guidelines
- Keeping operating expenses in line with the city budget
- Submitting all receipts according to PSB guidelines
- Leading on-court events when necessary according to PSB guidelines
- Establishing positive customer relations
- Practicing respect at all times
- Growing the number of players/teams in your city year over year
- Executing grassroots marketing strategies
- Contributing to PSB social media accounts according to PSB guidelines
- Communicating with PSB Support Staff
- Practicing punctuality for all scheduled meetings and calls
- Providing input and contributing to all PSB meetings and calls
- Problem-solving with the help of PSB Support Staff
- Respectfully and clearly handling problems and issues as they arise
We repeat: This job is hard. PSB’s Support Staff helps make it simple for our City Directors, but the work is not easy. We cannot stress this enough – being a PSB City Director is often a grind requiring an extraordinary amount of hustle. It’s truly not for everyone. In fact, it’s not for most people.
However, maybe you’re one of the few who is willing to sacrifice to join a high-performing team committed to changing the culture of youth basketball? Do you think you have what it takes?
If so, then apply now!
