All-Star Gym Staffing Question

[krissycole44]

We have 9 teams and 5 coaches total. 2 are the owners.. 2 only job is working at the gym and then me. I am the only one that only coaches 1 team because I have to work during the day at my other job. The other coaches all coach 3-5 teams.

i coach at a new program in Northeastern Ohio, and we have 3 teams... the Owner coaches all three teams. I coach all the athletes in tumbling and i coach two teams as assistant coach!

Just about every coach in our gym coaches 2 teams, but nobody does more than that.

We have Tiny, Mini, Youth2, Jr3, Sr4.2, Sr 4 or 5 (I'm not sure what they will be yet), and an Open/College team!

The head coach for tiny's only does that 1 team I believe but helps with youth 2 and maybe some other teams.

The head coach for one of our largest teams of like 28 for mini's is the owner she is always there and helps with all teams but she is the main coach for mini's!

The head coach for youth 2 is the head coach for our Jr 3 as well and she is amazing! She helps with tiny's and some other teams also!

The head coach for our Sr 4.2 i believe that's the only team she has. She sometimes helps with others as well.

Our Sr4 team I honestly don't know who coaches that team wether it be the owner or someone else. (I rarely see them)

Then our owner and her husband coach the open team I'm guessing
the owners husband is also the coach for the college team here as well.

So as far as the question goes the owners has 2 or 3 teams and it's not just the high level teams as her main team is the mini's!

Then another coach heads 2 teams.

Then everyone else has 1 team.

It's the same group of coaches though because they all help out other teams and there is always like 3 people their for the different teams practice!

Then we have another coach who I guess he is referred to as the "skills" coach. He is really good at helping people get the new skills they desire. So they don't have him head coaching they want him to always be aval to every team at all times!

i work with every single team at my gym.. (besides minis)
and i also teach alot of the tumbling classes! (about 98% of them)

My biggest concern about this is definitely getting through warm-ups and awards. I coach a Tiny X, Tiny 1 and Mini 1. If we go to a smaller comp, it's likely that they'll all be in warm-ups together. They might even be consecutive performances. Or Mini will be warming up while I'm onstage with one of the Tiny teams. It's going to be a little crazy to keep track of that many little kids at big comps as well

That happened with our gym during the GLCC Nationals. All of our teams from all our locations were there and it was truly bananas. We were scrambling to get coverage for teams during warm up because it is impossible for one coach to be on two different mats...

ACX coaches generally coach 2 teams. If you are a newer coach with less experience, sometimes you will only coach 1. The owner makes the decision at the beginning of the year. But generally everyone coaches two.

At my gym, no one coaches more than 2 teams and each team has at least 2 coaches. It seems to work out well because the teams have their coaches FULL attention at all times.

Our head coach coaches mini 1 and Sr4 and assists with at least 2 others. She loves mini 1 because the girls are so eager to learn! Plus she's a firm believer in teaching things right from the beginning so that they don't have to break bad habits.

Many of our coaches are head coach on one team and an assistant on another. This seems to help quite a bit with scheduling conflicts. As we continue to evolve as a program, it seems like we are getting more and more coaches involved, so I can certainly see the day where our coaches become dedicated to a single team.
