I have one suggestion that I think will help you attract better applicants: pay for tournaments by the day rather than strictly by the hour. Most rep coaches compare programs based on what they earn for a weekend tournament. For example, you could state:
- Practices: Paid hourly based on certification.
- Tournament/Game Days: Paid based on hours worked at the applicable coaching rate
Pay: $25.00-$35.00 per hour
Work Location: In person
