At Unity Athletic Development, we believe development goes beyond the athletes on the field.

We're creating opportunities for people who want to build relationships, gain experience, develop new skills, and become part of something meaningful in their community.

Whether you're interested in coaching, education, sports media, social media, entrepreneurship, or community involvement, we'd like to learn more about you and explore how we might grow together.

Your Interests. Your Skills. Your Opportunity to Grow.

Our Five Pillars guide how we connect, communicate, learn, and work together. They reflect the culture we’re building at Unity.

Coaching Development & Mentorship

Interested in coaching, teaching, or working with young athletes?

Unity offers opportunities to learn our coaching philosophy, observe experienced coaches, understand different personalities and learning styles, and gain supervised experience in athlete development.

We’re interested in people who want to learn a system, share ideas, communicate effectively, and grow within a team-oriented environment.

Social Media, Content Creation & Sports Media

Interested in social media, photography, video production, live streaming, or content creation?

Unity offers hands-on opportunities to film training sessions, capture athlete highlights, edit videos, create posts, live stream events, and help manage our social media platforms.

Whether you’re experienced or just getting started, we welcome fresh ideas, creativity, consistency, and a willingness to learn and grow.

Community Networking & Connections

We believe relationships create opportunities.

Unity brings together people with different interests, experiences, and backgrounds throughout the East Metro and surrounding Twin Cities communities.

Whether you’re a student, business owner, educator, coach, creator, or community member, we want to encourage meaningful connections, shared ideas, collaboration, and ongoing communication.

Sometimes one conversation can open the door to something new.

Business & Entrepreneurship

Interested in understanding how an organization grows?

Explore opportunities to learn about branding, marketing, sponsorships, community outreach, event planning, and the business side of building a youth athletic program.

We welcome individuals who enjoy developing ideas, exploring opportunities, and learning through real experience.

Education, Internships & Career Development

Considering a career in teaching, physical education, coaching, sports management, marketing, or youth development?

Unity welcomes students, recent graduates, and individuals interested in gaining practical experience.

Depending on the opportunity, we may provide mentorship, supervised projects, documented volunteer hours, portfolio experience, professional references, and support for school-approved internship requirements.

Academic credit is determined by the student’s school.

Program & Event Development

Interested in organizing events, coordinating activities, working with families, or learning how sports programs operate?

Explore opportunities involving scheduling, registration, event coordination, equipment, communication, and other aspects of running an organized youth athletic program.

PARENTS, ENJOY THE MOMENT

As parents ourselves, we understand that families want to watch their children play, improve, compete, and enjoy the experience.

We want you to have that opportunity.

Volunteering is always welcome but never required or expected.

Our goal is to maintain an organized coaching and support structure so parents can enjoy watching their children while the program continues to operate effectively.

For parents genuinely interested in coaching, mentorship, leadership, or helping behind the scenes, we’re happy to explore ways to get involved.

• Hands-on experience and professional skill development
• Coaching guidance and mentorship
• Networking and community connections
• Supervised projects and portfolio-building opportunities
• Documented volunteer and community service hours
• Support for school-approved internship requirements
• Opportunities to contribute ideas and develop leadership skills
• Potential for greater responsibility as experience and trust develop

We’re interested in what you can contribute, but we’re equally interested in understanding your goals and what you’re hoping to gain from the experience.

We’d like to hear from you.

Tell us a little about yourself, what interests you, and what you’re hoping to accomplish.
