About LoveSetMatch
LoveSetMatch is a nationally recognized 501(c)(3) charitable organization that believes tennis is better when it’s shared. Our mission is to inspire and empower youth through sports while building community, confidence, and healthy lifestyles. We run joyful, welcoming tennis programs in neighborhoods across Los Angeles—where kids, families, coaches, and volunteers grow together.

Position Overview
We’re looking for a friendly, enthusiastic Tennis Coach who loves the game and enjoys being part of a caring, supportive community. At LoveSetMatch, coaching is about more than forehands and footwork—it’s about showing up with heart, encouraging young players, and being part of a team that truly looks out for one another.

You’ll work alongside kind nonprofit coworkers, passionate volunteers, and grateful families who make each session feel more like a community gathering than a job.

What You’ll Be Doing

Teaching fun, engaging beginner-to-intermediate tennis lessons for kids and teens

Bringing our STEM-based tennis curriculum to life through games and movement

Creating a positive, inclusive environment where every player feels welcome

Encouraging effort, sportsmanship, and confidence (high-fives encouraged!)

Helping with simple court setup and equipment

Connecting with families and fellow coaches in a warm, professional way

Being a positive role model on and off the court

Who We’re Looking For

You’ll be a great fit if you:

Enjoy working with kids and being part of a community

Have tennis experience (playing or coaching at any level)

Are reliable, kind, and communicative

Believe sports can change lives

Like working outdoors and being active

Bonus points if you:

Have coached youth before or worked in community programs

Speak Spanish (not required, just appreciated!)

Are studying education, kinesiology, sports science, or a related field

Schedule & Commitment

Programs typically run after school, evenings, or weekends

Sessions are about 1.5–2 hours

We love coaches who can commit to a full program cycle (6–10 weeks), but we’re flexible and human

Compensation

Stipend-based or hourly pay, based on experience

Opportunities for more hours and leadership roles

Strong references and real community impact

Why You’ll Love Coaching with LoveSetMatch

You’ll join a kind, mission-driven team that supports one another

You’ll make a real difference in East LA youth communities

You’ll build meaningful relationships—with players and fellow coaches

You’ll leave the court smiling (and maybe a little sweaty 😄)
