At TPH, our purpose is to lead the world in the holistic development of student-athletes, advancing – in and beyond the game – the next generation of impact players. We are an academy-style athletics program that enables the opportunity to develop athletics, academics, and character while helping student-athletes achieve their long term athletic goals.

TPH is looking for a Player Development Coach and Mentor to join the team in Phoenix, AZ.  

Player Development Coaches & Mentors do exactly what their job titles state: coach athletes directly, in areas related to their sport, and mentor them on “the process” of reaching their potential, in sport, school and most importantly, life. These individuals multi-task and often work hand-in-hand with the actual Director in areas such as business, operations, admin and enhancing the overall student-athlete experience.  Player Development Coaches & Mentors often specialize in components of athletic instruction and deliver the actual training to the student-athletes.  They are 100% athlete-focused, wear multiple hats, and have an opportunity to grow to become Heads of their actual sport, or Directors themselves.  This position also comes with a strong focus on providing input in developing a strategic plan to drive student-athlete interest in the Academy model and building a database of prospective student-athletes.
