Boca Raton, FL | Where Ambition Meets Opportunity
Every great team has a Pied Piper.
Someone whose energy is contagious.
Someone who makes swimmers look forward to practice, pushes them with positivity, and builds a culture that kids, parents, and staff want to follow.
If that sounds like you — Florida Atlantic Aquatics (FAA) wants you on deck.
We’re searching for a motivating, high-energy, growth-minded coach to join our staff as an Assistant Coach.
This is a part-time role to start, with real potential to grow into a full-time position for the right candidate. You’ll work directly alongside Coach Rich Rogers, a nationally recognized coach who has guided swimmers to National Age Group #1s, Junior National titles, and Top-20 national team rankings — all while building a team culture that thrives on science, passion, and purpose.
You’ll primarily work with:
Age Group swimmers (10–14) — building rock-solid fundamentals at a high technical standard
Older, newer/less experienced swimmers (HS level) — helping them bridge the gap to competitive excellence
This is a hands-on, high-impact coaching role — not a clipboard job. You’ll help shape practices, connect with athletes, and bring your voice and presence to the team every day.
This isn’t just a job — it’s a chance to be mentored inside a nationally ranked program that blends elite methodology with a culture kids love to be part of.
You’ll be immersed in:
🧪 Cutting-edge training methods rooted in Dr. Sergei Beliaev’s Super Sport Systems (3S) methodology
🧠 Progressive team culture building — learning how to inspire groups, not just run sets
🧍♂️ Parent education systems that strengthen the swimmer-coach-family triangle
📈 Professional mentoring — designed to groom you for a long-term coaching career
Think of it like a paid high-performance coaching internship, but with real deck responsibility and a pathway forward.
As we build together, opportunities will open in:
🌅 Morning training groups
🏋️ Dryland leadership
🗂️ Team management & logistics
🎥 Video analysis and race breakdowns
📲 Social media and program storytelling
📝 Administrative projects and seasonal planning exposure
Initiative and vision are rewarded here. If you bring ideas and energy, we’ll give you the runway to run with them.
