Join the team

Coach where the work gets watched.

We are a small staff in Petaluma training athletes ages 4 through adult. Every plan here starts with an assessment, which means the coaching is specific and the results are measured. If that is how you want to work, we want to hear from you.

Roles we hire for

Openings come and go. If one of these fits you and it isn’t listed as open, send your resume anyway. We keep it on file. Kinesiology and exercise science students: ask about seasonal internships.

  • Athletic performance coach

    Strength, speed, and conditioning for athletes across sports. Every program starts with an assessment, so you read movement before you write anything. NASM or equivalent certification required.

    Full or part time →
  • Youth development coach

    Our youngest athletes start at 4. You teach movement basics, build confidence, and mentor kids through their first years in sport. This role decides whether a kid keeps coming back.

    Part time →
  • Mental performance coach

    Focus, composure, and resilience work for young athletes, delivered alongside their physical training. A background in sport psychology, coaching, or youth mentoring is preferred.

    Part time or contract →

What we look for

Certifications get you in the door. These are what keep you here.

You coach, you do not supervise

A printed sheet and a stopwatch are not the job. Every set gets watched and corrected.

You can explain why

Athletes and parents ask why. “Because it is the program” is not an answer here.

You are certified, or working on it

NASM or equivalent for training roles. If you are mid-certification, say so — we have hired that way before.

You are good with kids and adults

Same floor, same hour sometimes. A 9-year-old and a 45-year-old need different coaching in the same room.

Who you would work with

Will Bullard and Steve Miksis. Both played Division 1 — Will basketball, Steve volleyball. It is a small staff, so you would be coaching alongside them rather than reporting up through anyone.

What you would work with

Vertimax, BlazePod, the Tidal Tank and the SandDune Stepper, plus a recovery lounge with a cold plunge and infrared sauna. If you have not used some of it, that is fine — most people have not.

How hiring works

  1. 01

    Send us something

    Resume, or just an email telling us what you coach and where. No cover letter required.

  2. 02

    Come in and talk

    At the gym, on the floor, during training hours so you can see what a session actually looks like.

  3. 03

    Coach a session with us

    Paid. You run part of a real session with a coach alongside you. It tells us more than an interview does.

Send a resume to info@bambamtraining.com, or call 707-753-3583 and ask for Will.
