Ellie Tucker

Hi, I’m Ellie Tucker, a varsity coach and educator from Huntington Beach, California! Growing up, sports were always a big part of my life. I excelled in sports, and my love for teamwork and competition only grew stronger as I got older. Today, I’m proud to put that same passion into coaching and teaching the next generation of athletes.

Currently, I’m a high school teacher at Tustin High School, where I’ve found my true calling teaching U.S. History: helping young minds both in the classroom and on the field. Flag football has become an exciting and fast-growing sport, and I’ve been involved at the varsity level as it has become a CIF recognized girls sport. I serve as the varsity assistant flag football coach at Tustin High, where I focus on building strong defensive strategies, enhancing game knowledge, and sharpening skills. I also assist with coaching boys varsity baseball, further fueling my dedication to team sports and building all around athletes.

What I love most about coaching is the opportunity to instill important values like teamwork, discipline, and resilience in my players. I bring a high-energy approach to everything I do, creating an environment where athletes can grow, have fun, and thrive both on and off the field. I’m thrilled to be able to help inspire young girls and continue to grow the football community. My ultimate goal is to help these kids build confidence, master the fundamentals, and discover the joy of the game.
