Edmonton Minor Soccer | Volunteer Opportunities | EMSA Spruce Grove

Have a little extra time? Love the game of soccer? Interested in getting involved?

Without volunteers, we wouldn’t be able to provide such a great program for your child. Thank you to all our volunteers for getting involved and making the difference.

Saints Coaching Positions Available

Spruce Grove Soccer relies on volunteer coaches for our teams. Without coaches there are no teams. Coaches will be provided with opportunities for coaching education and development through paid courses and in-season support. Quite often coaches come to us with little to no experience and that’s okay! With a desire to work with youth and a passion to lead we will help the rest! Coaches receive credit towards registration fees the next season. Apply to be a Coach

SGSA Executive Positions Available

We believe in inclusive programming where athletes are engaged, having fun as well as developing their soccer skills. To provide such programming takes organization and planning behind the scenes by a diverse group of dedicated people.

We are looking for enthusiastic people to contribute their unique skills to our Board of Directors team, as we work to further the excellence of our program. If you are 18+ years of age and want to expand your skills or offer your experience to our team, we would love to hear from you.
