  • Coaching Position: Greenville Central School (Sec 2) located 20 minutes south of Albany is looking for a Varsity and Modified coach for the coming season. This is a 2nd year varsity program with 14 varsity wrestlers returning and 9 freshman moving up from modified. One coach can take both positions (as was the case last year) or either position. You will have a PT unpaid assistant who will help with Modified and Varsity. The administration would prefer a teacher but will accept applications from non-teachers as well. To see a list of open teaching positions refer to the state website (olasjobs.org). This is a great opportunity for a new young coach to work with a motivated group of wrestlers. The future is bright as the youth club had 80 members this past year and of the 14 returning on varsity only 2 will be seniors. If you want more information or have questions please contact Marty Kelly at 518-441-7428 (c), 518-966-5624 (h) or qpkthk@aol.com
