The WCA mentor role is flexible and fully remote, requiring only one hour a week over an 8-10 week season to provide support for young women developing leadership and coaching skills. Mentors also join a mission-driven community backed by leaders in sports including the NFL Foundation, Golden State Valkyries & Warriors, Bay FC, SF Giants, Angel City FC and more.

What Mentors Do

Each WCA mentor guides a pair of coaches for one hour a week throughout the 8-10 week season. Every week, you will hold a 30 minute virtual touch base, helping them navigate challenges, communicate with confidence, reflect on their experiences and develop leadership skills that extend far beyond sport. Mentor calls often require an additional 30 minutes for preparation and follow up.

We welcome mentors who bring experience in coaching, teaching, youth development and leading teams - in any field. If you've helped others grow, you have something valuable to offer.

Mentors are the confidence builders, helping young women connect coaching experience to leadership skills ….and to future opportunities in sports and beyond.”

Pam Baker

Women's Coaching Alliance CEO

"Getting leadership skill sets at a young age, learning early on and keeping that with you as you're testing and learning makes you a resilient, successful coach in the long term. So the work being done by the Women's Coaching Alliance is a big piece of the solution."
