Job Description...
Reports to: Adventure Coach & Executive Director
Academy Camps is an overnight sports-specific sleepaway experience on the campus of Suffield Academy in Northern Connecticut. We are seeking an Assistant Adventure Coach to be a member of our coaching staff. We have a total of three 2-week sessions that run from June 23rd to August 2nd.
Who we are
Academy Camps is a modern approach to the sports camp experience. We offer 1- and 2-week sessions for Boys & Girls age 10 - 15 interested in lacrosse, basketball, soccer or tennis. Our campers choose one of our four "Academy Sports" and receive 2 intensive training sessions per day with our high-performance coaching staff.
We are a dedicated team of high performance coaches, nurturing & exemplary counselors, and experienced camp professionals, passionate about the 'whole athlete'. Outside of sports specific training sessions, AC is distinguished in delivering programming focused on its pillars of Performance, Wellness, Mindset, and Leadership mixed in with a healthy dose of fun through a daily schedule of traditional sleepaway camp activities.
Position
Our Assistant Adventure Coach will be responsible for supporting our Adventure Coach to deliver a program aimed to improve physical, mental, and emotional skills for our athletes. With your coaching, athletes will focus on expanding their comfort zone in the safe and nurturing environment of the outdoor learning center. The core of our program will involve indoor rock climbing, high ropes, and low ropes. The program will also teach confidence, growth mindset, and teamwork skills.
In addition to coaching, our Assistant Coaches have responsibilities as Dorm Counselors. In collaboration with your co-dorm counselor, you will oversee a group of 10-15 campers throughout the day from wake-up to bedtime. During a day at camp you will be assigned to various camp activities - like running a camp elective or serving as a Head Coach for our AC Cup.

• Teach campers to develop good self-care and independent living skills
• Be a quality role model for children, maintain general dorm cleanliness, and be safety conscious at all times

• Must hold a current ACCT Level 1 certification or a certification of equivalence (40 hours of basic training)
• Possess a high passion for rock climbing, challenge courses, and outdoor education
• Experience working with youth in sports or educational programs
• An excellent relationship builder - quick to connect, build trust, and rapport
• A goal-oriented coach - motivated to help our athletes achieve their goals
• A creative problem-solver - with an empathetic approach to customer service, team management, and ability to ask for help when needed
• A growth mindset - an orientation towards learning and development; willing to receive and implement feedback and learn from mistakes
