We dedicate ourselves to find solutions to make coaching sport easy and making more time for the athletes.

We provide service to assist coaches, organizers, and schools/clubs to develop an easy and well-developed managerial system, sports programs and we also recruit the best person for the job that will meet the needs of the athletes and the coach/organizers.

PASSIONATE ABOUT YOUTH,
SPORT AND LEADERSHIP.

We have found that youth coaches are in fact teachers or have other job responsibilities. This makes coaching or organizing a sport overwhelming. The added managerial frustrations make being a sports organizer, sports manager or sports director at a school or club no easy feat.

Our team at Coach Easy consists out of Teachers, Coaches, Athletes who competed at the National level, Sports Managers, and Sport Psychological Counsellors. Combined we have over 20 years of experience in the youth sports field.

We dedicate ourselves to find solutions to make coaching sport easy and making more time for the athletes. Training and developing Champion Minded Leaders.
