Get Involved as a Coach or Unified Partner
Thanks for your interest in getting involved with Western Wings. Your help is greatly appreciated and an essential component in the success of our team.
Coaches assist athletes at practices and competitions. You will be supported by the Head Coach and Leadership Team. It is not required that you be proficient in the sport. You will gather and organize athletes and help them learn the basic skills of the sport. Obviously, knowing something about the sport is a huge advantage.
Unified Partners actually play the sport along side the athlete and compete with them, as well. For example, we have a solid Unified Basketball Team who practices together weekly and competes together against other unified teams. In swimming we have unified relay teams. In bocce we have unified pairs who practice and compete.

All coaches and unified partners must be Level 1 Certified. It is your responsibility to complete the paperwork after being notified of the need for renewal or new certification. Failure to complete this paperwork makes you ineligible to coach or participate. Renewal is required every three years and is for the safety and protection of our athletes. This process is required by SOMN.
