Western Alamance High School is searching for the first head coach in the history of its new girls’ flag football program.

The North Carolina High School Athletic Association recently sanctioned girls’ flag football as an official sport, with the first state championship set to be crowned during the upcoming school year.

Western Alamance plans to field a team but must first hire a head coach. Applicants must be high school graduates, possess a valid driver’s license and have knowledge of the sport.

Preferred qualifications include an associate’s or bachelor’s degree, at least three years of coaching experience at the middle or high school level and a teaching certification.

For more information, visit the Western Alamance Athletics Facebook page or view the official job posting through the Alamance-Burlington School System.
