- Assistant Coach Certification (formerly titled Youth Assistant Coach Certification) is available to any actively enrolled 4-H member who is 14 years of age or older as of September 1 of the current 4-H year AND any approved Adult Volunteer Leader less than 21 years of age . An Assistant Coach may assist a Certified 4-H Shooting Sports Coach ONLY in the immediate presence of the Certified Coach.

Assistant Coaches are NOT certified to coach outside the immediate supervision of a Certified 4-H Shooting Sports Coach.
