Dute Sports, a youth training organization headquartered in Hangzhou, has officially launched its 2026 autumn recruitment campaign. The company, which specializes in basketball and physical fitness training for children aged 3 to 16, is seeking to fill coaching roles as it expands its operations across China.
National Hiring Initiative for 2026 Graduates
The recruitment drive targets 2026 college graduates to fill two primary positions: basketball coach and youth physical fitness coach. Dute Sports currently operates 40 direct-managed teaching locations in Hangzhou and more than 60 across the country. The organization reports a current workforce of over 300 full-time coaches and a student enrollment exceeding 20,000.
Basketball and Fitness Coaches Must Meet Specific Requirements
The basketball coach position requires an associate degree or higher and fundamental basketball skills. The company specifies height requirements of 175 cm for men and 160 cm for women, though these may be relaxed for candidates with exceptional technical proficiency. Basketball coaches receive a base salary of 4,500 yuan, with total monthly earnings reported between 7,000 and 12,000 yuan, inclusive of class fees and performance-based commissions.
For the youth physical fitness coach role, the company mandates at least one year of teaching experience. Preference is given to graduates of sports colleges or those holding professional certifications, such as a teacher’s qualification or a social sports instructor certificate. These coaches are offered a base salary of 5,000 yuan, with typical monthly income ranging from 7,000 to 12,000 yuan.
Benefits and Professional Development
Dute Sports provides on-site dormitory accommodations equipped with air conditioning and independent bathrooms. The company’s compensation package includes social insurance for graduates, while interns are covered by workplace injury and commercial accident insurance. Additional incentives include performance commissions, subsidies, and company dividends. Employees also receive benefits such as paid annual leave, team-building events, and opportunities to participate in company-sponsored basketball tournaments.
Competitive Standing and Recent Performance
In 2026, Dute Sports secured a championship in the Sun Group U9 division and a runner-up finish in the U7 division at the Hailan Pegasus Cup national finals. The club also placed ninth nationally in the U10 division at the China Mini-Basketball Finals and earned championships in both the U10 and U12 divisions of the Hangzhou Mini-Basketball Super League.
These results follow a series of accolades from 2021 through 2024, including being ranked first in the Hangzhou City Mini-Basketball standings and receiving a 5A rating as a youth basketball training unit in Zhejiang Province. The organization has also served as a recognized partner for the NYBO (National Youth Basketball Open) and a promotional unit for youth basketball skill assessments in Zhejiang.
