Is it possible to be a P.A and a coach?

[Dr.Optic]

I've been thinking lately about a lot of things, especially about my future. This crazy idea came into my head and I just thought I would express my mind because I can't seem to get it out of the back of my head. Anyway, so I was wondering if it is possible to be a primary care P.A and coach high school sports (cross country) at the same time. My friend's dad who is a pharmacist coaches basketball after work. So this idea just came into my mind if being a P.A and coaching a cross country team or any other sport is possible after work?

Yes.
If you practice in a primary care clinic you will probably work normal business hours (except on-call days). The 5 PAs in my building typically work 8 AM - 4 PM. This leaves plenty of time for after-school activities.
