See What You're Signing Up For

Press play and get a feel for the energy, the kids and the crew you'd be joining.

This Isn't Stacking Shelves or Making Coffee

Most first jobs pay you to count down the minutes. This one pays you to run around, talk basketball, and watch a shy 6-year-old hit their first ever shot and light up like it's the NBA Finals. You'll finish a session buzzing, not drained. That's the difference.

The Perks (And There Are a Lot)

Here's what you get when you coach with Little Boomers.

🏀

Zero Experience Needed

Never coached before? Perfect. We teach you everything. All you need is good energy and a love for kids having fun.

😄

A Crew That Feels Like Mates

Our culture is fun, friendly and full of banter. Work shouldn't feel like work, and with us it won't.

🗓️

Hours That Fit Your Life

Studying? Working full-time? Packed week? We build shifts around you, not the other way around.

💰

Great Pay That Grows

Solid hourly rate from day one, with raises as you level up your coaching. Plus superannuation, always.

📈

Resume-Boosting Skills

Leadership, communication and confidence that employers love. You'll build it without even noticing.

🚀

A Real Path Forward

Love it enough? Some of our coaches go on to run their own Little Boomers franchise. This can be the start of something big.

You'll Fit Right In If You...

That's it. The rest, we'll teach you.

  • Light up around kids and don't mind being a bit silly
  • Show up on time and bring good energy
  • Want a job you'll actually look forward to
  • Love basketball (or are happy to fall in love with it)

Hear It From Our Coaches

Real coaches, in their own words, on why they love showing up.

"My favourite thing is coming in each day, seeing the familiar faces of the kids, and them just smiling when they see 'oh, it's our coaches.'"

Marcus, Coach · Bankstown · 9 months in

"My favourite thing is seeing the kids get more confident. I had a kid who lost the confidence to make a shot. I said 'no, you can do it,' and he made it. He was buzzing after that."

Aaliyah, Coach · Auburn · 3 months in

"Let's say you're having a bad day. You come in, you see a bunch of kids smiling and working with you, and it just puts a smile on my face."

Tyler, Coach · Fairfield · 6 weeks in

"It's so much more than just coaching. You're not the teacher, you're not the coach, you're there as a mate. You're building a friendship for these kids, and that's why they come back. They come back for you."

Jordan, Coach · Marrickville
