Rec Alley opened its doors in March, 2017 with a mission to get children in Southwest Sydney active and healthy through quality gymnastics programming. Rec Alley classes include kinder, recreational gymnastics, levels, parkour, trickers (acro), tumbling, and much more. Going beyond gymnastics, Rec Alley encourages healthy living and great behaviours through designing programs that cover areas such as anti-bullying, diversity and inclusion, socialising and much more.
Rec Alley is a TWO TIME WINNER of Gymnastics NSW Large Club of the Year 2018 and 2019 award. It is also one of the largest gymnastics providers in NSW with 6,500 children participating at a Rec Alley each year. Our goal is to grow and promote Rec Alley's gymnastics programs across South-West and Western Sydney. Between our four clubs, Rec Alley Gregory Hills, Rec Alley Minto, Rec Alley Oran Park and Rec Alley Rosehill, there is a growing community of Rec Alley gymnasts and families.
Rec Alley coaches have an exciting opportunity to work for a growing gymnastics club and also, have the flexibility to work on classes and Gym Sports they enjoy across our four clubs. Rec Alley values energy and passion and is seeking energetic and experienced individuals who have a background in gymnastics, dance or sports coaching. We look for above all else, passion and energy in finding the best individuals.
About Rec Alley's Kinder Program: More than just gymnastics, Rec Alley's Kinder (6 months – 5 years) Program aims to develop children with a holistic approach to learning and development. Our new programs focus specifically on motor skill development (gross and fine motor) and the stimulation of six sensory systems. At Rec Alley, we strive to develop a child's self-efficacy, school-readiness and resilience, all while they have fun, engage in physical activity and interact with others.
About the Role: Rec Alley is looking for people who are energetic and passionate about child development to lead our refocused Kinder Program. Kinder Coaches will be trained on the program and we encourage people from all walks of life to apply. Rec Alley offers a flexible work environment for those with families, study or other commitments.
