Head Coach:
The head coach for this team has yet to be named. We are
talking to a number of exciting and qualified candidates. We will let you know
once someone has been named.
Parent Roles: Team Manager - The
U12 Girls White team is looking for a parent to be the team’s manager this
spring. Team Managers work with the coaches and with the Lightning organization
to provide answers to any questions families have. A Team Manager is key to
keeping everyone informed and organized, at the right place for practices and
games, and with the right gear. If you want to
know what's going on and you feel you can communicate clearly and quickly to
people, this is the job for you! Please contact us at

Assistant Coaches
- We encourage parents with a soccer background and with interest in coaching
to volunteer to be Assistant Coaches. It is very helpful to have another set of
hands/eyes/feet at practices and games to assist the head coach. Christine
McDonough, former UVM player and coach with Lightning for the past two years
will assist both the Green and the White teams. If you are interested in
helping out as an assistant coach, please contact us at
