THE ROLE

Do you truly believe in the Power of Sports? You're educated, talented and highly motivated? There's nothing greater than the challenge of supporting those who serve, members of the Canadian Armed Forces, in a team where dedication goes beyond the game.



Sports is critical to ensuring our military members' physical and mental wellness. As a Recreation & Sports Coordinator, your competencies will be used towards the planning and the coordination of the operations and delivery of sports and recreation programs in your location for the officer cadets of the Royal Military College Saint-Jean. This includes both intramural sports and competitive representative sports teams at the provincial level (RSEQ), as well as nationally and internationally, in sports such as hockey, volleyball, soccer, running, track and field, swimming, triathlon, flag football, broomball, fencing, judo, taekwondo, and basketball. On a daily basis, you will be involved in the organization, coaching, and officiating of sports, clinics and training camps. You will also use your expertise to monitor, evaluate and recommend improvements to the sports and recreation programs.



Join us to make the difference in something that is greater than a "game sheet". Be part of a unique business that serves a community like no other one.
