Our upcoming season runs from January to May 2024 (must be available for the entire season). Time commitment is 1-10 hours per week, depending on how many classes you teach. Great coaches will be invited back to lead future sessions.

We provide all necessary training, equipment, and support. Being an ANTS Coach is a great way to learn to coach sports while serving our community. ANTS partner schools & communities are located across Oakland, Alameda, San Leandro, San Francisco, and Walnut Creek. Classes will run at community parks, tennis courts, and elementary schools.
