The Hun School of Princeton seeks a dynamic and creative Head Junior Varsity Field Hockey Coach who reports to the Head Girls’ Varsity Field Hockey Coach and Co-Directors of Athletics.
The Hun School Athletic Program is proud of our education through athletics. We have a strong athletic tradition at Hun, but success is broadly defined. Competition and winning are important aspects of any program, but do not control the scope of our athletic philosophy. The measurement of success will not be judged by the tangible evidence of victory or defeat, but by the intangible personal development and shared memories that make the effort and experience worthwhile. We participate in the Mid Atlantic Prep League (MAPL) as well as compete amongst the top independent and public schools in the region.
