JOIN OUR TEAM
Racquet Network offers seasonal, casual and part-time employment for Calgary racquet sports instructors in the following sports: tennis, squash, badminton, racquetball, pickleball.
Any certified adult instructor may register with us to teach private lessons and begin building a regular clientele. Some instructors get started with Racquet Network and then move on to full time positions in other clubs. Some instructors have full time employment elsewhere but register with us either because they enjoy teaching or because they want to get staff discounts on equipment.
Instructors are invited to come to our store to register in person. Once registered, we can set them up with private lessons on public courts near their homes.
Racquet Network monitors instructor activity and feedback from clients. Instructors who are actively involved in our network, actively engaged in our ladders and leagues and getting positive reviews from customers are often hired by Racquet Network to teach group lessons, run leagues and organize tournaments. Racquet Network even hires certified instructors to work in our Pro Shop serving customers and stringing racquets.
MAJOR BONUS – Regardless of how often they teach, all registered Racquet Network instructors enjoy staff prices on racquets, shoes, apparel and accessories.
Please bring your resume in to us at 4 10015 Oakfield Dr SW. We do not accept resumes by email or fax.
REQUIREMENTS
All instructors must be at least 18 years old and must have a teaching certificate from a recognized racquet sports organization.
If Racquet Network agrees to hire them, applicants must provide the following prior to registration:

2. Signed noncompete and nondisclosure agreement

TIPS
Racquet Network takes the issue of instructor involvement very seriously. In addition to evidence of competence, we are looking for signs of enthusiasm. The instructors who get the most work with us are those who are most involved in our leagues, ladders and tournaments. We also notice those who spend time on our website congratulating and encouraging our customers for their efforts.

* Hiring Now
All new applicants start out as Instructors teaching private lessons. Those who prove themselves are invited to assist head coaches with leagues and group lessons.
Seasonal Head Coaches are appointed to specific facilities on a seasonal basis. They are responsible for delivering all programs at that facility for the entire season, usually with the assistance of one or two assistants. Since all appointments are seasonal, there is no guarantee that Head Coaches will be reappointed to the same facility the following season.
When Racquet Network chooses Seasonal Head Coaches enthusiasm is a critical consideration. Instructors who are actively involved in our leagues and ladders and who are actively engaged with customers on our website are always considered to be top contenders for head coaching positions.
