We always NEED new volunteer coaches for Rec In-House teams. Please consider volunteering to head coach, assist or even help manage a team. No experience necessary. Soccer Source 360 professional trainers work with the team every other week. PSC is a 100% volunteer organization, and without volunteer parents like you stepping up, our children would not be able to play. If you’d like more information on volunteering, please email the Rec Director.
