Dear Hiring Manager,

As a licensed Soccer Coach with 20 years of high school coaching experience, I apply with enthusiasm for the Assistant High School Soccer Coach opportunity.

Drawing upon my award-winning history as a Soccer Coach and player, I have an outstanding reputation for my ability to coach high school teams to record-breaking success, built upon a fervent commitment to developmentally-appropriate player education. Many of my students  have gone on to achieve national success, including Johnny Marven, Erroll Horváth, and Roger Andrews.

In addition to my instinct for recognizing and coaching talented players, I continually demonstrate the technical and tactical skills needed to produce high-performing teams. As a player, I have coached and been voted into numerous all-star games and regularly selected as captain due to my leadership qualities, team contribution, and integrity. 

Mirroring your requirements, my areas of expertise include Sports Enhancement Training, Scouting, Player Evaluations, Functional Behavior Assessments, Conditioning Programs, Counseling, and PR. I am deeply familiar with the United Soccer Coaches Code of Ethics.

I am interested in this opportunity because your students epitomize the qualities of perseverance, desire for excellence, and teamwork. Despite suffering numerous losses over a 5-year period, the team has made a stunning comeback with consistent top school league rankings for the past 2 years. This speaks volumes about their innate talent and willingness to embrace new strategies.

Please find attached my résumé for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps.

Yours sincerely,

John Smith
