Sports Camp Director

Overtime Athletics · Springfield, VA, USA ·

Pay:
$50,000-$150,000/yr
Job type:
Full Time

Full-Time (Summer) | Leadership Role

We run multi-sport summer camps for kids ages 5–14 across Fairfax County, Loudoun, Arlington, and Herndon. We need a Camp Director who can own the day — manage staff, keep kids engaged, handle parents, and make sure every session runs on time and on curriculum.

This is an operations and leadership role as much as it is a coaching role. You're the one everyone looks to when something goes sideways.

What you'll do:

  • Direct daily operations of a multi-sport summer camp (50–150 kids depending on site)
  • Lead and supervise a team of counselors and instructors
  • Deliver and oversee OTA multi-sport curriculum across age groups
  • Manage daily schedule, rotations, equipment, and logistics
  • Be the primary point of contact for parents at your site
  • Handle incidents, injuries, and behavioral issues calmly and professionally
  • Ensure every child is safely signed out at end of day

What we're looking for:

  • 2+ years coaching or camp leadership experience
  • Proven ability to manage staff and hold a team accountable
  • Multi-sport background — you don't need to be elite in everything, but you need to be credible
  • Strong parent communication skills — professional, warm, and direct
  • Calm under pressure — camps are high-energy environments
  • Reliable, organized, and self-sufficient
  • Must pass background check + fingerprinting
  • Reliable transportation to assigned camp site

Pay & Schedule:

  • Pay increases with tenure — we reward coaches who grow with us
  • Full-time hours during summer (typically June–August)
  • Some pre-season planning and training required
