It depends on your son, actually.  What kind of work does he do?

 

If he is a professional coach who also coaches youth basketball on the side then that is self-employment income.  If he is only doing it because he needs the money and he doesn't have another job then that is self-employment income.

 

If he is employed in an unrelated field and coaches youth basketball on the side then that's a hobby that he would do whether or not they paid him.
