If the DOC is also the owner of the non-profit club it can be hard to determine unless there is an inpendant board that oversees the finances of the club. In that case, coach and DOC salaries would be reviewed approved by the board. There also would be a level of transparency.
One well known metro west club paid it's doc (girls & boys) about $10,000 in the about 1994 and another (combined girls & boys) about $20,000 in about 2002. They were only responsible for guiding teams (maybe coaching one team as well) - no summer camps or clinics.
Thanks,
A clarification: What should you have to pay a qualified outsider after a nationwide search?
A person with technical, conceptual, leadership and administrative skills overseeing club training, recruiting, coaching assignments, fundraising, sponsorship and marketing etc...
I'd need a 1 in front of that $40,000 to take on the full responsibility of a large Club, especially if a few of the crazy T-S parents, like myself, had kids in the program.
I'm a sucker for doing bocephus' research, but I know this question has been posed before and it interests me.
The NSCAA (you can look that one up) offers these general guidelines:
Youth Club Director of Coaching
Responsible for club curriculum development, hiring and training of staff, fundraising, budget, competitive calendar,
parent education, etc.
Reports to: Usually a board of directors comprised of club members either chosen by the president or elected by the club.
Terms of Service: Negotiable.
Salary Range: $10,000 - $120,000 plus benefits (depends on the size of the club).
Recommended Qualifications: NSCAA National Youth Diploma, NSCAA Premier Diploma.
According to this a salary $35,000 and $50,000 is a realistic range to consider. A parttime DOC (20 hours/week), would range between $18,000 and $25,000 depending on qualifications. MYSA also recommends a fulltime person should be given health insurance, disability coverage, and some form of retirement fund.
That is quite a range of salaries. I imagine the most qualified will want the higher range. Then there is retention (even if in this economy someone comes in a more reasonable salary).
if a club has 300 players $40K breaks down to about $133 per head, per year. Should be doable.
Has anybody heard of incentives on top of salary If the DOC grows the club, is effective at fund raising, runs tournaments etc...?
I find it hard to believe that this thread actually exists on this forum. If someone had a legitimate question here as they were in the market, what could you possibly be thinking about that would lead you to believe you'd get any real sense of reality here? And why would you expose the world to this discussion? Maybe we should be discussing whether the coach of your child's team is being paid sufficiently at the moment and lets see if they could get a better paying job at another club....... Please...... use some sense.

While where on the subject, what does a division one coach on a preimier team usually get paid. How would you determine how much they get paid.
As far as incentives for DOC There are some clubs out there that will do it. Depending on how many the DOC recruits for the Club.
